Nickels?

[PennyRoll]

Are Nickels good to go through? Is it worth it? If they are, what should I be looking for or be looking to keep. I've seen a few people with their nickel logs on here, but I wasn't sure if it would be good to get into as well or not.

Go read cladsmoke's log. As you will see, you find alot of interesting stuff in boxes of nickels. All of the pertinent info is in the beginner guide.
I search dimes and half dollars for silver, but enjoy hunting a box of nickels because you find a lot of low mintage keepers and a little silver and a buff or older on occasion.

Well there's not much info. That it says to look for on the beginners guide which is why I asked.

Do you have an iPhone? If so I bought the coinbook pro app for a couple bucks. Helps me learn about all the US coins, plus calculate my silver.

I do not have an iPhone. I have an iPod and a kindle fire though, I'll see if I can get them on those. Thanks.

No, I can't get it on either.

They are kinda fun. I keep everything pre-1960. 1942-1945 are the silver ones, careful on the 1942s as not all are silver. Other than that, keep very nice 2009s. I started with cents myself, moved up to nickels/dimes and quarters (never had any luck with quarters) and now I do dimes and halves, although I have only found ONE proof and NO silver in over $20,000 in halves so far, but I am a glutten for punishment I guess...

I keep hearing people say to keep at pre-1960 nickels. Other than the war nickels, why keep the pre-1960s? Can you sell them for more than $0.05?

Yes, eBayers and some LCS will buy them for over face.
