$100 Brinks box of nickels

25 pre 1960 keepers- possibly my lowest total to date- oldest was 1940 (x4; 2x '40P and 2x '40D; one '40D is AU50 :D )
3 Canadian ('94, '98, '00)
1 2009D (only my 3rd '09 nickel found so far...)
2 S mints ('53, '54)
1 magicians coin

As mentioned above, one '40D is absolutely beautiful (easily AU50; it still has full steps!!); and I found a '59 that is probably about EF40 (some spotting).

2-Boxes Niks
1-WN

Also found another 1950D in XF condition plus VF-XF 1938 and 38D and a 1951S. They all have a very similar surface and very nice condition which makes me think they were previously collected and dumped.

I have found a number of 50D's in the last year. This is my second nicest.

Last Thursday I was told by a teller in one of my local banks that another teller had taken in some old dimes, but it turned out that a customer had brought in some old nickels. I seldom do nickels but I never pass up an opportunity to sort anything that may be valuable. He only had three rolls left which I bought. They were all 1950s or older ... mostly 1941.

from 3 CWRs I found:

1 buffalo (no date) and 15 war nicks

1 1942-P
3 1942-S
3 1943-P (no DDOs)
3 1943-S
2 1944-P (one with a nicely peeled lam)
1 1944-S
1 1945-D
1 1945-S

Not bad for my first nickel search in about 6 months ... I may just return to doing them.
BTW, this wasn't the same bank or even the same area in which I scored 404 silver dimes on Tuesday
I've been accumulating CWRs of cents for two plus years, waiting for that rainy day ... well guess what, that day has arrived ... I'm broke ... time to get rid of the two tons of zinc!
