Nice find....hope your eyes are OK. What do you plan to do with the nickels?

That's a good question 🤔? Listening to suggestions..

FYI:  There are 40 nickels in a roll, 50 two-dollar rolls in a box, $100/box;

Each nickel weighs 5 grams, 200 grams/roll, or roughly .44 lbs/roll.

At .44 lbs/roll,1 box (50 rolls) weighs 22 lbs (or 10 kgms).

$22 lbs/box, 10 boxes, 220 lbs.

I do not have any suggestions, but have only one question:  How?  How did you manage to move all that weight?   :news: :makepoint:  doh!  :facepalm:

I have never seen an armored car guard or transit revenue officer carry more than one box of rolls or box of packets of tokens, on their shoulders, at one time. Impressed.  (thumbsu

I hear crickets. hm

Just joking bud, I do the same thing, but I only keep one roll of each error coin. Like one of each of those die scratch nickels. I guess you could try e-Bay. you may get some lookers.

I posted two new coins with die scratches in the Newbie section.  I saved a full roll of each.
