very good finds!

how many of the dark edges actually were war nickels? Can you spot them to some degree of certainty just like 40%'s after a while? I've never worked nickels so I have no frame of ref.

Great pile of wheaties also!

first roll was a 37D ... 4 legs lol. the next was a 1937 centavos. kinda ironic. but only 2 of the others in those rolls were war nickels

[AGBlex]

thank you for all the information! it was a really good week and i've found a few more firsts! todayy hopefully i can get some nickel boxes and hit a few more good finds!

 

[rocky raccoon]

are you sure that is 78 shield?

 

[blink]

So...you're about a week from starting halves?

 

[That Canadian Guy]

Lets see some close up pictures on that shield nickel. From what I understand in 1878 only 2350 proof shield nickels were minted, none were minted for circulation that year. Weather or not that is a 1878 you have been really successful with your finds.

 

[AGBlex]

the only two numbers i can see are 7 and 8 on the nickel. the 18 is totally gone
i'll try and get a pic up tonight

 

[BuffaloBoy]

1 word, WOW! keep at it, congrats on the oldies!!!

 

[conleytheking]

My book says that the 78 is worth 800 in G-4
Sell it and buy silver!

 

[AGBlex]

dude mine is in the condition of ... well is that a coin?
