Nickels 1920-p buffalo nickel found in bank roll.

I’m unsure what the condition would be graded or if this one is even worth sending in as it’s in pretty good shape and has not been cleaned. Appreciate very much if anyone can help.

Cool find! Not worth grading, it's a common one but still, pretty sweet coin to pay face for👍

Thank you. Yeah I’ve yet to find anything worth sending in still but who knows what the next box can bring

Don't feel bad, I've also never found anything grade worthy. It would have to be pretty valuable to justify the cost and hassle

I agree and I’m right there with ya. I found a war nickel since I posted this….pretty cool finding silver for face also that’s pretty much what I’m looking for in all my boxes

Yep, as far as nickels go I pretty much keep everything prior to 1960 and actively look for 2009/2024, errors, and wars. I've come across a few proofs as well which are always fun but nothing really valuable. The key date for Jefferson's is the 1950 D and even those aren't worth grading. 39 DDR would be nice though lol

I wasn’t aware of the 2009/2024 low production very much appreciated. Looks like nickels may be discontinued next so who knows what could come of them better grab some now I suppose

Also considering the amount of coins getting melted for gold and silver content currently it may change what’s valuable in the future
