You are correct, for the past 3 weeks I have pulled an older nickle per week from pocket change (a 1946 and 2 1947s).

Was at the grocery store the other day and my girlfriend pulled a wheat penny out of the free change bowl. I thought that was pretty cool.

Lol, that's awesome! War nickles are always a welcome find - especially when digging in one's pockets!

Treasure is where you find it!
Congrats on your war nickel!

There is a lot of older coins from collections that is making it's way into circulation now days, it pays to check your change.

That's a cool find, congratulations. Heehee, every time I check my pockets I find either a hole, or lint.

A few years back I got an uncirculated 1939 D Jefferson nickel as change from a soda machine. I'm sure someone stole it from another's collection. I later traded it for a BU Iowa commerative half dollar. Keep looking people!
