I just happened to find this forum. Looks cool.. anyway, I get boxes of pennies at the bank and save the copper ones. They all think im crazy there to. Ive thought about Half dollars and Dimes but never got a silver coin ever.. My question is what to look for in Nickels. Im still kinda new to this coin rolls thing.

Keep all nickels from 1959 and below. War nickels are 35% silver and contain 0.0563 oz of silver.
Buffalo nickels are fairly common

War nickels(1942-1945)
**Some 1942 nickels are not silver, look if there is a mint mark above the monticello to see if it is a war nickel**

I personally keep all canadian/foreign coins as well.
I have only gotten 1 V nickel(1904)

Also keep an eye out for the key date of the nickel series (1950D)

also, this is not the key date but people seem to also have trouble finding these dates: 1938s
1938d
1939s
1939d
1942(non-war)
1950p
1955p
1955d

Hope this helps, and welcome to the forum!!
