93 War Nickels! Huge pre-60 hoard

[goldencoin]

Hello, got $185 in dimes $60 in nickels (wish I had enough to them them all). The dimes gave me 3 silvers (50, 64, 64d). Nickels were uneventful, until I hit the mother load. 10 rolls almost solid pre-60! It took 2 hours to sort all the dates. I got lots of 38's, but not the 30 d I needed. Then I got a 39 d and s, my seconds of each . I got bunches of 48 and 49 s, semi-key. I got 3 1950's, but no d for my album. However, I got my first 55, then another 1 for my album! I just need those last 2.

I also got 2 1940 large S, and a 1954 S over D...just like the one in the pic

On the war nickel front, I got 93. Some rolls were solid with them.

I would LOVE to make a find like that! War nicks are my favorite silver coin. These were all customer rolled nickels? I usually just get boxes, but I may have to start asking for customer rolled....

WOW!!!! you have truely kicked my butt with my best nickel score. Congrats on the finds.

You just got $70 worth of silver for under $5.00. Not bad return on the investment.


With a score like that I would be returning and getting ANY hand rolled coins that bank has. I did that once after a HUGE nickel score and hit pay dirt in all denominations. GO GET THEM!


Happy Hunting,
Jason

That's awesome! What was the war nickel date/mint breakdown?

I was just telling a colleague that hardly any nickel hoards show up too!
