Went to a few banks today and at one of them, I got $22 in nickels (all the CWR the teller had).
Clearly this was some sort of collection or just someone had an old pile of nickels lying around as inside these rolls were a lot of old nickels (some of which were uncirculated), some impaired proofs, a few buffaloes and a few war nickels, all mixed in with some modern nickels (however, I think the latest date was 2006). The following pictures show samples of what was in the rolls.
Out of the rolls, I was able to find 4 buffaloes (1937 x2, 1936, and 1926 (barely readable)), 2 war nickels (1944P, 1945S)
Found some of the better dates, including the 1950D (nearly BU condition), 1950P, 1938D x3, 1938S, and the 1939S. In the picture are also a few 1938Ps - one of which was in BU condition.
These are the other BU old nickels I kept from the roll. I think the 1941S is the full-steps variety.
These are the proofs (1968S, 1969S, 1970S, 1978S x2)
These are the novelty nickels (both 2005) - one the reverse is colored and the other is some sort of "golden" color
thanks for looking and HH
