One Buffalo nickel 1927-P
One 1945-S War time nickel!

This is probaly nearly my 20th box of nickels searched and i still havent found a single 1938! How often do you guys find one??

Nice finds. I have gone through about 15 boxes on Nickels and found 1 - 38. Nice wartime and buffalo find. Keep searching you will find one.

This year I have found three in 64,000 searched. They aren't very easy to come by...and that's just the Philadelphia.

I search LOTS of nickels. I have 3 - 1938, 1 - 1938D, 1 - 1938S, 30 - 1939, and 0 - 1939D and 1939S.

So I'd trade a 1938 for a 1939D or 1939S if you find those instead. They seem harder for me so far to find than the 1938's do.

Keep searching for those WWII War Nickels! They are there. I have often found up to 4 in one box. And, you never know when a V-Nickel will come your way. Good Luck & HSH!
