Point of saving pre 60 non-war nickels?

NICKELS

Nickels are also fun to try. I save all pre 1960 nickels, but some people save anything befre 1956.

Question is why? What am I missing here besides buffalos?

the 38's and the 39's I keep, and also there's the 50d and maybe a few other key dates. other than those I don't see a point, there seems to be too many of 'em to be worth anything. If you find a pre '60 with full steps you might wanna keep it though

I got several rolls of 2012 uncirculated still in the virgin rolls, wortg holding on to?

I would hold a few rolls, but not boxes of them. As TimZim would say, "You're just a bunch of clad lovers."

I save them and sort them into rolls of Decade and Mint. Like 1950 - 1959 P or D or S and so on. Then sell them on ebay and make a few bucks when I sell them in a big lot. I separate all the key dates and put them on ebay, alot of suckers buy into them
