Today I stopped at two banks and picked up 2 boxes of nickels, 30$ in CWR of halves and 3 rolls of dollar coins. I have one box of nickels to still search, but the rest yielded the following:

1-1943-P nickel
3- 1939-p nickels
1-1979-S SBA dollar
1-1976-S half
1-2007-P half

So it just occurred to me that the 1979-S SBA is worth about a dollar... Not so excited now. At least I found a silver nickel...

Keep on grinding

The 1976-S proof half. Thanks for looking.

The 1976 s half is silver?

The 1976 s half is silver?

Not this one. It's just a proof.

$80 - CWR of halves -skunked with 4 rolls of solid bicentennials... Too bad who ever collected them didn't collect the silver ones.

 

[CladSmoke]

Second stop of the day, had $80 cash and bought $80 in CWR halves. They have some more left. Results thus far-




I think I will go back in and buy the rest as soon as I hit up my ATM.

 

[CladSmoke]

From the remaining $37.50 they still had at the bank. It was a good stop!

 

[CladSmoke]

Searched a box of MWR nickels - skunked.

 

[CladSmoke]

Searched CWR box of nickels - 1 - 2009-P and 1 -1939-P.
And searched $160 CWR of halves. Skunked. All rolls were labeled with what was inside...

 

[CladSmoke]

Searched 1 box of nickels (brinks) and 1 box of pennies (brinks).
1-1938-D nickel
1-1939 nickel
2-1926 bufs
1-no date buf

9- common wheats
2-1950's Canadian cents.

 

[CladSmoke]

One brinks box of nickels. No silver, just some various 40s, 50s and misc.

 

[sagittarius98]

The 1961 and 1971 Canadian nickels are 99.99% nickel, making them good bullion coins.

Still no silver... Just a few interesting items. The 34 buffalo is a D.

Excellent post, thanks for the info! I have often wondered about the composition of the canadians I find. Thanks!
