Also please keep in mind that nickels in 1942 were both silver and non-silver. The silver war nickels minted in 1942(as well as 1943, 1944, and 1945) will have a large mintmark above the dome on the back of the nickel. non-silver ones won't.

How do you find them so far below spot? Lol best I can find is $48

Id pay a little bit more than buffaloboy only because my area you can sell them for spot usually- but I wouldnt pay more than $1 a piece for them

I am not buying them nor plan to, I am just saying what I would personally pay since I would much rather have 90% silver. I mean for my price, i'd buy them but really there is no market for them in my area.

I wouldn't pay a premium of any kind for war nickels

50 a roll max is about what they are worth

Coinhunter - it depends what you want to do with them. If you're trying to collect them, they're going for $55-56 a roll on ebay all day so use that as your baseline. If you're trying to flip them, use that number as a start and figure out how much profit you need to make it worth while. LCS sell price is above that, buy is below that, probably ~$15 a roll each way.

I wanted to flip them. I usually invest in 90 and 40% and eagles and maple leafs. Lowest I could get him was $48 a roll though

I'd think that after shipping, at $48 a roll it's not worth the effort.

I would suggest getting you some boxes of Nickels and going through them. In most locations you will average 1 per box, not much but you can also get other goodies as well. Nickels are not for everyone but in my opinion they are the most fun to search of all denominations. I combine Nickels with Halves boxes that way I can find some Silver and have fun also.

they go for so cheap compared to how cool they are that I just hang onto all of mine. Of course if you can get them cheap and need the money why not. I still haven't finished my first roll, 1 per box is a lot of nickel boxes!
