Would you call this a "Dream Nickel" box ??

Just finished a nickel box tonight and found 29 pre 1960 coins which is just about the average number I have been pulling lately. But, included in this number were the following coins which I feel may put this in the dream box category:

1950 D in great shape with it's original luster. The individual steps on Monticello can still be seen and it has a slight toning. Probably from someone's collection.

1906 V Nickel.

1936 D Buffalo Nickel.

These 1950 D 's are not easy to find. Been searching nickels for a long time and this is the first for me. Maybe it won't take as long to find the next one. The V is the second one I have found in the last three months. The buffaloes are not all that rare. I am averaging one every three boxes.

What do you think ?? Dream box or not ??

I think you need to have 100 Silver coins to be a dream box. (/sarcasm)
Honestly thats a great box and I would love to find me a V Nickel in one. It is my humble opinion that if it is a dream box to you - that makes it a dream box.

A whole roll of buffs, v, or war nicks would be my dream box.

Maybe not a dream box, but a great one nonetheless!

Thanks for your input fellow t'netters. I guess I got a little too excited but with the sorry half bags I've been getting lately, I got a little carried away !! Whew !! I agree, it's not a dream box but I sure had fun with it ! HH and goood luck to all.

Nice find on the V. I'd be happy with that

I'm up to three 1950D nickels in the past year, but not a single V nickel yet.

Congrats on the find. In my opinion, not a dream box, but I'm sure many here would trade their box for yours.

I've been averaging about 1 silver nickel for every $200, one buffalo for every $800 to $1000 (just found one this week), and one proof nickel for every $1000 to $1200.

That said, it was definitely a good box for OP.
