2005 Buffalo nickels

[scotto]

I've heard a lot of people have been saving these as well, anyone else?

Rolls of these coins have been steadily rising in price at the coin shops, as well as ebay. The mint has been out of stock on these coins for quite some time. I've heard similar stories about the two state quarters with buffalos on the reverse.

I am. I just recently purchased some so I will start saving them. I haven't heard that about the state coins....any idea as to why?

I was at a coin show recently and they were selling for $2.50 per roll. Has anyone else seen these coins at a premium?

I've seen the P & D roll sets going for $14.00 a set. The mint has been out of these rolls for a long time. I got a set months ago for $9.00.

i keep them also. since thats the only year they made that reverse and obverse, they are worth more.

I've noticed in my limited nickel searching that these seem to show up less than the other three designs. Is this particular design just well-liked, or what? Does anyone save the other Lewis and Clark designs as well? I may get more in to nickels and start saving these as well as the older jeffersons. The silver situation around here seems bleak. And you can't really go wrong saving ANY nickels since they're worth about 9 cents in copper/nickel these days!

i was saving them all, but when i got $20 in nickels from the bank, there were tons of them. i just save the 2005 nickels now.
