This weekend I searched $90.00 in penny rolls and $150.00 in nickle rolls.? I found 10 dimes in the rolls,5 in the penny rolls, and 5 in the nickle rolls.

I found a total of 41 wheat pennies:? 1913, 1918, 1920-(2), 1926, 1937, 1939, 1940, 1941-(3), 1944,1945(5), 1946-(4), 1948, 1950, 1951, 1951D, 1953D-(3), 1955, 1955D, 1956, 1956D-(3), 1957D, 1958, 1958D-(2).


I found a total of 44, pre 1960 nickles: 1939, 1940-(2), 1941-(2), 1946-(3), 1946D, 1947, 1947D-(2), 1948-(2), 1952, 1952D, 1953, 1953D-(2), 1954, 1954D-(3), 1955D-(3), 1956D, 1957, 1957D, 1958-(2), 1958D-(2),1959D-(3).

I also found two unusual coins, one is a foreign coin.? I don't know what country it is from or the denomination.? ?I also found a nickle with a large P engraved on the front of the coin.? Any ideas about the nickle?? Who would take the time to engrave it, or did it come from the mint this way?
