Nothing earth shattering tonight...I went through some rolls of nickels and pennies tonight...with wheatbacks appearing about every 3rd roll...sometimes 3 in a single roll...got a nice 1921 WB in pretty good condition for its age...a 54 nickel that appears to have been cleaned? A couple 39 nickels... And a 47 George VI penny...I enjoy finding those...and lastly a 43P war nickel to add to the collection... getting there slowly...but I find coin mining to be relaxing.

Thanks for viewing!

Nice score. Finding coins and relaxing sounds good
I think my cat enjoys it too....he relaxes by wrapping himself around my neck when I'm sorting...
It is fun going through the rolls. I hear stories that US penny production may cease. I wonder what that would do to the value of those that are saved.
I imagine the value would go up? Rarer, scarcer? Is scarcer even a word? :)

What is also nice is not having to reroll the coins...the bank I live near has a coin sorter...the teller there is a coin enthusiast and is also willing to order some half dollars... I'm pretty excited about that...
