A nice find in today’s Nickel hunt 2 2

[Chickenswoup]

25x$2 nickel rolls

2.5 rolls with 1980 and older nickels

13 nickels 1965 and older

Only one somewhat rare variation: whistling queen

though it’s only valued at around $1 CAD, pretty excited to add this one to my collection.

The phone camera doesn’t depict the variation well. Will have to upload microscope pictures shortly

Nice coin, but up you got ripped man, it’s only a nickel! Lol 😆 I got a couple of Canadian quarters in my last batch from the bank. I asked for hand rolled quarters, nickels, dimes,pennies not federal reserve mint rolls. Got quite lucky,

found a very good number of nice coins. And I get to take the rest back to the bank and get more, repeat. Fun!

[Chickenswoup]

Wouldn’t say got ripped, technically I still possess the $50 I gave the bank in exchange for $50 in nickels. Haha, it probably is nice to find quarters and dimes in a nickel roll, but this was my first nickel hunt. I got pretty excited when I found 4 1965 nickels, but they all turned out to be small bead variety. At least my nickel collection is coming to completion. I will be documenting every time I do this thing, just to see how many on average, out of 1000 nickels, are rare.

I can remember when canadian coins could always be found in change. My wife still finds them once in a while in their register at work but not as many as the old days.

As always , the good old days.

[I don't know.  Maybe it's just me, but I have been watching the lips of her Royal Highness now for eighteen hours straight and haven't seen them move once.  Whistling?  How?  Where?  When?  To whom?  Certainly not me.] 😉

Whistling Dixie. Take it from an Alabama import.

On the bright side they each have 8 cents worth of nickel in them.
