1964 Extra Water Line nickels

Postby Recyclersteve » Sat Sep 06, 2014 6:18 pm

I'm trying to figure out what percentage of 1964's are the EWL type. I have a bunch of them to go through and don't want to waste the time if I can only expect to find 1 or 2. Also, I have a bunch of 64's that appear to have come from mint sets- was the EWL type produced on mint sets and proofs or only on business strikes?

substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.

I've only found one xwl in over 20,000+ .999 nickels, but I expect most of the coins I get have been previously checked.

It would actually be interesting to get a hard statistic on how many can one expect from an untaped source. Personnaly, in over 40,000 .999 nickels searched I did not find any. Good luck and keep us posted.

Yes. I never found one on the wild. Around the 30$-45$ mark.
