Three nickels in change today

[Evolution]

I received these three nickels in change today. The 1946 and 1957 are nickels you dont see every day but still fairly common. The third nickel was kind of interesting. Someone took the time to deface it with the word "duck" At least thats what I made it look like. I don't often use words like this.

Nice finds and I have a bar of Ivory soap for the person who stamped DUCK!!!

Been finding older nickels in the tills at work lately. Oldest was a 32 nickel...or was it 37? It was a 30-something, I'm just too lazy to get up and look

I've decided just to collect 59 and older nickels. Did get a 45 P Nickel the other day (over Monticello)...but very very worn and ugly looking, but still silver

Happy Hunting,

When I started collecting nickels as a kid (about 25 years ago) I collected '59 and older as well. I have a box now with about 250 of them somewhere. A '32 or '37 would be of the Buffalo variety. Jeffersons started in '38. I always check my change before it goes into the change jar.

Reminds me of the old half cent coins and large cent coins, and how people used to deface them to read something else. The "e" in the word "cent" was changed to something else.........

I did a double take the first time I saw one of those.

I remember reading a post about those coins/tokens once. Old school brothel or cathouse tokens. I wish i had one.....just for collector reasons of course

 

[Evolution]

Just a thought. I see that some people consider counterstamped coins like this love tokens. Would this qualify as a love token? :P

Would this qualify as a love token? :P

I think this would qualify as a LUST token
