new 2011 nickles p mint mark

[bonus2003]

I am pretty sure i know the answer to this but I got a box of what looks like PF-65 level nickles. Book says they are 0.20 a peice, is it worth keeping them? or get rid of them.

If they are P mintmarked, then they are not proof. Proofs would be S mintmarked.

sorry wrong grading, they are P mint mark but it clames ms65 is worth .20 a peice for that grade. Any thoughts? I was thinking maybe keep a roll and send the others back. If you dont think I will ever get more than 5 cents for them just tell me that too

I doubt that you got a whole box of MS65 coins. Just sayin'.

[l.cutler]

Even if they were all MS65, which is unlikely, book prices are usually a high retail price. You would be very unlikely to be able to get over face unless you cherrypicked some higher than MS65 grade pieces from the lot.
