Another good box of nickels w key date

mountainman 2 · Mar 13, 2012

Just finished a Brinks box of nickels. They've been producing lately so i picked up another from a branch that i bought one from yesterday. 2 war nickels and a dateless buffalo later, i spotted a 1950. Turned it over and there was the D.

This is my 2nd career 1950-D, the other is in similar condition.
The V nickel in the last 2 pics are from my last box, a 1906. Full rim on the reverse but the lettering is almost obliterated. Weak strike?
Thanks for reading, good stuff's out there. HH-MM2

Good stuff Mountainman, Congratulations. Gotta love the V-Nick's! My Grandmother gave me a bag of 30 or so a few years back and they are precious to me.

Another '50D! Great finds! :icon_thumright:

I think I'm ready for another box of nics of my own soon.

WOW!! Congrats on your 50d... I knew it would be a decant box... it's not over until the last roll :icon_sunny:

Incredible find on the 50d. In addition to the dimes I search, I have been looking at 8-10 boxes every week since January--Still no 50d. That is a treasure for sure!

Best to you
