Discussions pertaining to the investing in, collecting and saving of U.S. CuNi Nickels and Canadian Ni and CuNi Nickels, and other coins containing nickel. Put in your "5 cents" here.
It seems to depend on where your area is. I find a couple every $100 box or so, and some have a very hard time finding any. It seems like you might be in a good area for them. Stack em up!!
Always drink upstream from politicians, they tend to foul things up.
I heard today at a coin show that the reason why many people are having difficulty finding the 2009 Nickels is because.....the majority of them were sent to Puerto Rico?? Why would they do that? Seems like an odd place to ship them...
Working on a Jefferson Whitman folder. Asked a buddy if he had any nickels. He had a few that I needed and then pulled a 2009-P. First one I've seen though I've only been looking casually for a month or so. Now to find the 09-D.
I find them pretty often. I even stopped saving them for a while because they seemed too common.

Things appear to be drying up a bit. Out of the last 3 boxes, and ~$60 in CWR, I only found 9 total.

Found 2 in a $100 bag of nickels recently, both P's I think.
If they are out there, their condition is getting worse day by day. Found a 2009 dime recently that was corroded - I threw it in the dump pile - not worth keeping!
