I just got through one of my better boxes of nickels. I found the ever elusive 1938S. I noticed several other posts where CRH"ers have mentioned this is a very hard find for them. Not sure, but I think this might be my first or second. The 3 others found in the same box were 1897 V nickel, 1936 Buffalo, and 1943P silver war nickel. I was due. I'd been through several recent skunk boxes. Arizona is a dry land. As always, HH everyone!

That's an amazing box! Nice work!!
 

I'm jealous - the '38S is the only one I need to complete my set. Nice box!
 

yep me too, the last one I need. over 250 boxes and never found one!
 

Super nice finds! I am very jealous.
 

Very very nice box!!! I found my CRH 38-S and 39-D in the same box a little less than a month ago. Indeed the 38-S is a very elusive coin. In all of my years of collecting, I have found two total.
 

You got a little bit of everything in that box. can't get much better than that in terms of variety, great box!
