Looks like some nice finds. Nickels are fun to search because you can usually find something.

Keep hunting. From what people say persistence is the key. Before you know it you'll have a nice collection. All the best.

I know that persistence since I've been at it for a year just having to have someone drive you around is really annoying for a person that dosen't enjoy the hobby, but i have been successful I've found 1 V-nick (Holed 1906) And 2 '50D one being in at least AU maybe MS 60.

2 1950-D's is amazing. I found one a few days ago and was shocked at my good luck--never expected it. Finding 2 is incredible. They are so rare.
