I got a widow's box

First one in almost three years. :shock:

100$ nickel box, all neatly sorted by years. Unfortunately only the years 1972-present were in the box. (still over 20% on .999) :D

To the deceased: Rest in peace my friend, your nickels have found a good home. :angel:

Cheers,

Cool find. Maybe the box with older dates is still in the vault at the bank waiting for you.

I hope so..... :shifty:

I also think that the demise of the penny drove some individuals to round-up any coins laying around the house and returning them to the bank. This is probably the reason why I see higher percentages of .999 these days.
