They are the best of the best coins I find when roll hunting. about two years or so worth. I sort them in six big old pill bottles by date then when I have multiple dates and the bottles are full I sort them again. That way it only takes a day or so to fill the book with the nicest circulated MS looking coins when the time comes. There are a few that have a tint to them and they may tone up, or a gray look to them. Some have bag marks but mostly ok stuff. We all know coin collectors aren't to fussy Edited August 22, 2022 by J P Mashoke Mr.Bill347 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J P M Posted August 23, 2022 Author Share Posted August 23, 2022 Searching for the lost nickels for the book I found this today. It is always a treat to find old FS,pre,1964 silver and proofs roll hunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleRJO Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Those pesky 2009-P/D nickels popping up missing again! Sounds like you have a lot of fun going through coins/sets with the grandson. Future collector? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say I have really good memories (back in the grey matter ... lol) of going through common coins with my grandfather who collected pocket change coins ... nothing special, except the memories of doing that with him. And then later with my mom who did some of that, but by that time I had "discovered" girls, so it was all over for coins.

In my case it was for the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
