That's an awesome find! I'm curious to hear what kind of grade people give it.

My not very educated guess is that your great find would grade 'fine' to 'very fine' numismatically. Congratulations on a great find no matter what it grades!!

i couldn't see the date very well ... but if that 3 cent nickle is dated in the 1880s it is quite valuable. if it is dated 1868, its much more common, but in good condition should still bring 20+ bucks, I think.
