Popular Post J P M Posted July 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) I found a Nickel that is not very common tonight. The 2009 D has a very low mintage of 46,800,000 so you do not find them a lot roll hunting. It is not good looking but it is a modern rarity Edited July 4, 2023 by J P M Rod D., Hoghead515, cgcsketcherz and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Interesting. I did not know the mintage was so low on the 2009 D nickels. Now I have another coin to look for...lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had two empty slots in my blue book for a long time. I picked up this 2009 P at a shop outside of Charlette NC for $3. I find that is the average price for BU coins almost everywhere I go. This is a strong MS66FS in my opinion and if it was graded on a sunny Friday afternoon after a long liquid lunch it may get a 67 if everyone was happy. ..LoL.. I never send in coins anyway. I buy coins other people have spent money on to have graded. It will be in the blue book if anyone needs it .

I buy graded coins for the registry sets I am building but everything else that I like would be raw. I know, kinda hard to believe. I have a bunch of raw ASE's. Every year from 1986 to 2023 and a few extras. Some British and Canadian bullion. I can't help it Eagle. I even have a bunch of proof and mint sets in paper envelops. I apologize for being so unpredictable. powermad5000 and EagleRJO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VKurtB Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Be careful with these! The 2009 nickels in the matte finish, from the Uncirculated Set, are not worth a premium. Only the ones from the circulation strike, but still really nice, are worth any premium. The dimes also, but a little less so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are not that easy to get either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The special cents in the non-Zincoln alloy were in the Uncirculated Sets that year and boosted sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Just makes me wonder how many circulation strike 2009 P and D nickels I possibly let slip through my fingers when they first came out....smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only confirmation I can offer is a past co-worker who is Puerto Rican traveled “back home” and returned with several of them. The only one I ever got from commerce was given in change by a vending machine in my hotel in Baltimore, during a Whitman coin show.

Hoghead515 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Dont know if i done good or bad but, I bought both the 2009 P and D cut out of the uncirculated sets for $8.00. Thats the cheapest I could find them. Ive had no luck finding them in change or rolls. They are in great shape where they are still in the plastic OGP bubbles. Would share a picture but they still wont post. Dont know what happend. Never had no trouble before. When I go to add a picture it takes me straight to the home page.

To me, the ones from the uncirculated set are NOT THE SAME COIN! This is true of EVERY U.S. Uncirculated Set coin from 2005-2010. If I don't have BOTH the Matte AND the Circulation strike, I still have a missing coin. Hoghead515 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im still out the circulation strikes for my album. Hope I can eventually find them. Anyone know right off how many of the Matte were minted?

As I recall, the only source of "matte finish" 2009 coins is the 2009 uncirculated coin ("mint" set), which per the "Red Book" had a distribution of 784,614 sets.

I noticed a recent small change to the NGC home page so they must have done some website upgrading, and I am guessing there are a few "bugs" in it that need to be worked out.

Just Bob Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 It isn't just the Jeffersons that are hard to find in circulation. I don't roll hunt, so these coins were pulled from circulation. The 2009P is the only one I haven't found yet. J P M and Hoghead515 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VKurtB Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Yup. Doing circulation finds, 2009 can “nickel and dime” you to death. The cents were special, and the quarters were the Territory types. Buy rolls of Kennedy halves if you find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
