I've never had good yields with nickels. Your yeilds don't look so bad. Don't you sort out the Westward Journey?
Dimes in a nickel roll, hmmm...I've been screwed by getting nickels in quarter rolls. |

unless you 'order' , yes, very little change floating around. lake havasu is about 10k . now that i am headed to tucson. there are about 60 banks.and about a 1.2 million folks. also i will be there for the winter. so will be able to place a standing order.
i started doing this , thinking i could make a few bucks , while sitting in the sun. now? i have yet to see any return, but it somehow has hooked me. now i just need to get enough to be worth selling.
someone mentioned, going nuts looks at nicks. i agree. no more spending 700 to find not much. of course i will be forever telling the story of the very first roll opened, having a buff and a 20 franc. |

I have gotten dimes and pennies in nickel rolls. My nickel boxes are always short. I used to get at least one war nickel per box but now its more like 1 war nickel every 3 or 4 boxes. My last box had no war nickels but did have one ageless buffalo.
