Okay, well that's all of them other than 2004 and 2005. I'm not suer why you would exclude just those...

Because I develop habits and I just follow them. Like driving to school- on the way there I go one way and coming back I go a different way. Couldn't tell you why I just do it.

I keep everything thru 2003. That's the last year of the design that I grew up knowing as a nickel. The newer designs all go back to the bank. Picking such a late date also lets me sort rolls of coins and keep a high percentage. It's more satisfying than only keeping 16% of the coins when I sort pennies.
