HI,

Posting this for Matt again(12 yrs old). Take it away, Matt:

Sunday we had to go shopping,so i wanted to go to the bank.But,at the first bank they said they did not have nickels, >:(but my mom did get cash and there were 4 1995 uncirculated $20 bills!!!!But anyway we went to another bank and got $20 dollars worth of nickels.When i got home i looked though them, found some old ones and 2 unc. nickels, then on my 7th roll. O....... MY........ GOD...... i found a 1926 buffalo nickel!!! :o :o :o I was in shock, my mom thought i had a million dollar coin.And the funny thing is i'v only spent $60 on nickels all togather !!! And its my first buffalo nickel,and also my oldest coin found CRHing.There are also some S mint nickels, i am sure going there for rolls next

WTG Matt!! Congrats buddy. Finding a buffalo nickel is so cool. Yes, I agree about going back for more rolls at that same bank. I have gone through about 3 boxes of nickels since I have started this hobby and haven't found one yet! I bet you will remember finding that nickel for a looooong time...lol.

Keep up the good work and keep em coming. Thanks for posting the pictures too....I love the pictures.

Hey Matt, what's your secret ? Do you lay them all out on the table and flip them rightside up or do you throw caution to the wind and rifle thru them fast ? Now all you need is a "V" and you will have one of each. Jim
