I set aside all 1990 nickels as I go through a box and then examine each one with a loupe for the 1990 no/missing "FS" error which I've read about on numerous sites. I've gone through around 180 1990 nickels and while all of them show rather clearly the typical FS engraver's initials below...
Hey guys!
I found these two coins the other day, I'm new to this coin hunting thing.
Are these coins double died or is it just something happened because of extreme pressure? and if they are double died how much will they value?
Thank you!
Got this lil guy in a roll the other day. Think this was a man made error?? I'm thinking it is but I wanted to get a second opinion... Thanks in advance!

Finally broke into the 1800's ' 1875 shield nickel
Been detecting since May of this year , started out with a fisher f2 . Recently upgraded to an At-Pro( purchased both from Bart@big boys hobbies) Finally broke into the 1800's yesterday with an 1875 shield nicke. :headbang:
I just got the Fisher F-2, and I was wondering what war nickels ring up as on it (VDI and item ID. I do not have any war nickels, but I do have pages of BU 90% silver coins :happy3: .
Thanks.
Went through my second box of nickles last night and too my surprise, 5 or 6 rolls in I found a buffalo on the end of the roll :hello2:. The data is very warn. The best I can tell, it is a 1919-D. I have read about some people using "nick-a-date". However, some have said that it leaves an acid...

I know this is not a coin roll find or a metal detector find but I do not know exactly if it is a proof or not. I once bought a 1940 MS-63 nickel but it looked like it had proof features like a cameo I was wondering if it was a proof. It is probably not but it might be. Do you think it is a...
I was new to searching nickel rolls and exchanged three junk nickel rolls from my change bin.I went to the bank and got three rolls. one roll had a 1946 nickel on the end.I exchanged the junk nickels the next day for two more rolls. the first roll I opened had a 1976s proof nickel.
I could tell...
I pulled this 38d out of some MWRs today, it's in really good shape, it has lots of mint luster and a lot of detail in jeffersons hair, some of the steps are worn off though. This is way better than the other key dates I've found. Can anyone give me an idea of what it would grade as if I were to...
I've been saving all the pre-1960 Jefferson Nickels I've come across for quite some time now. This weekend I finally went through all the ones I have, and I realized I've got way too many of them. But before I send some of them back into the wild, I wanted to see if any of you fellow collectors...
Picked these up at an auction last weekend for a total of $18
1963 and 1961 pr70 LMC graded by PCI - $1 each
1963 and 1964 pr69cam LMC graded by PCGS - $3 each
1984 and 1986 s pr69 Jefferson nickels graded by PCGS -$4.50 each
How much do you think these are worth?
Also, the two proofs look...
I'm very new to metal detecting and just did my first beach yesterday. It was a small swimming pond that had been dug to build an interstate. I didn't think it was too old but found a dateless buffalo nickel and a 5 peso mexican coin from 1980 which was weird because I live in a northeastern...
