Today's nickel box

Went through my first box of nickels today. Not as good as some that I've seen, but it was good. I ended up getting around 50 pre-60s. Lots from the 40's, which will fill some holes in my folder, and most of them were S mints. I sure love finding those S's ;D. Got a '41S in GREAT condition; it looks like it just came from the mint. Still has full steps and everything. One lone war nick in the box, a '44P. Finds were slowing down near the end, but my moral was boosted by my FIRST WILD BUFFALO! ;D Full date, 1936. Great shape. I'm gonna dump the rejects tomorrow and hopefully pick up another box. I'm addicted to these nickels!

That's twice my average of pre-1960's for $100 PLUS a war nickel AND a buffalo with a readable date....that was a GREAT box!!!!
