    Let's search for some Silver Nickels!
    I've noticed a significant decline in the amount of silver nickels I'm finding and so I am definitely hoping to see a few in these boxes (or at least one! LOL).
    We'll be hunting these boxes of nickels for Silver, Buffalo Nickels, Proof coins, Old Jefferson Nickels, V Nickels and 2009's for their low mintage. We found several nice Early Jefferson Nickels in this two bank box hunt so let's keep our fingers crossed and our eyes open for some goodies!
    Keep hunting and good luck!
    They're still out there for us to find!
    By the way - I am still selling my custom Coin Roll Hunting Mats on my website or on eBay (see below):

      Hey Rob, thanks to your videos I've learned what the 'tells' for a Silver nickel is and in the past two weeks alone I've found three at work, two in the coin rolls, and one a customer brought in to pay with...
      So far I've gotten 3 1943 P's... One of them was toasted though, the edge of it was sheared off so it appeared to 'Step' out from the reverse of the coin to the obverse, I don't know what that silver nickel went through but I think it's time to retire it...
      Been looking for them for months, but I never knew they had the massive mint mark at the top of the monticello, that made looking for them so much more easier!...

    The 1939 def looks like a proof. I’d send it in for grading. It’s a gamble incase it’s not one, but if it is it’d be worth pretty big bucks even in that condition, and especially so if slabbed.

    A few days ago at work I was opening a dime roll and said to my co-worker "watch there be silver in this." I said it jokingly because out of countless rolls I've opened I've never gotten one. Sure enough I open it and BOOM. Right in the middle, a 1946 D Rosie. My first ever from a coin roll :).

    Rob, as always I enjoy the hunt. I believe that 39 is a proof coin. Very good find. In the past two weeks I've received two war nickels in change. Makes me wonder if someone inherited a collection and did a coin dump at one of the local banks.

    I pulled out some of my own 39 nickels so that I could compare them to the one you found @15:18. I have a few that are in decent condition with fairly good detail and the detail on them is nowhere near as prominent as yours is. I’m convinced that the coin you found is a proof. As for silver, it’s weird because it took me forever to find a war nickel. I actually found several buffalos and a v nickel before I found silver. Lately, however it seem as though I’m finding one or two war nickels every time I hunt a box.

    I dunno, man. That 1939 looks pretty proofy. If it was polished, it was polished by someone with small tools and a wicked case of OCD. I think it is worth spinning the PCGS roulette and seeing where it lands. If that is the route you decide to go, we expect a follow-up reveal video of the results.
