A couple of months ago I posted about buying $1400 in bagged nickels. I have now sorted the second of 7 bags. The other night I found a nickel that was very well worn. The date was half worn off, but readable 1944. My first war nickel.

Congratulations. I like searching nickels for war nicks. My average would be just a little less than 1 war nickel per box searched. Probably on the range of .8 per box.

Rich is a little whiskey to drink and some food to eat and a roof over your head and a fish pole and a boat and a gun and a dollar for a box of shells. Rich is not owing any money to anybody, and not spending what you haven't got." Robert Ruark

I love the war nickels. I have found that either you love them or hate them.

I'm so sick over pennies....I frequently trade a dime or two for the whole "take-a-penny" container if sufficient coppers exist. That will get you some odd looks.

Steady looking for the elusive Indian head....
