Just wondering how many members collect nickels in albums, as opposed to stacking?
Please remember to get your entries in soon for the nickel contest.

I started holding on to some of the canadian counterparts, old georges, rabbit nickels and have quite a bit of .999 canadian nickel. For US. i have a few of the coins that i have receive in misc lots but always try to get some war nickels and then i get rid of them, With war nickels, its like a love hate relationship

I keep every nickel I find! My collection revolves around the Jefferson nickels, but I do have a few War nickels and a couple of buffalos that I've found during my searches.
I also have a small amount of Canadian nickels too...hoping to change that

Voted for I just stack, cause that's the vast bulk of it. But I do have a few of the quasi-numi-types, though they fall into the "could hardly call them a collection" level.

I'm working on a roll of every year and mintmark of the pre 60 jeffersons as I sort. Anything above that goes into a jar of 50's and a jar of 40's. I also have accumulated buffaloes and V's by various means and I'm working on books for those. And then of course the war nickels which are part of my silver stack. Oh, and I keep the 2009's as well.

Sounds kind of like my own nickel archives that I'm building!
