Posted: Tue Feb 14, 2012 6:52 pmI have many rolls of '64 and I have found only one. It was when I was just starting to collect basemetal coins. I found a '64 XWL when I first started and the nicest proof penny (1972) I have is from my first box. I have found others that I think are proofs but they all look not as good as my '72 proof.

Re: 1964 extra water line
Posted: Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:26 pmWent through roughly 150 1964 nickels and no extra water lines found, anyone know the mintage of these? I know the 1964 base mintage is roughly 78 million and it seems these extra water line coins are a tad more than 20.00. One online going for 104.99 in ms-63 condition.
