I am buying some OBW nickel rolls, in search of the speared bison nickel! One of the descriptions for a lot of 4 rolls says "3 are HT and one is a TT roll". Can someone tell me what the HT and TT mean? Thanks! Dang- the title should be "bank wrapped.." lol
head-tail or tails-tails? LOL I have no idea but I myself have been looking for the elusive speared buffalo also
I just don't know if it's worth the search! Seems the going rate for OBW rolls of 2005 D bison nickels, is double face value. I mean, thats not too bad, but if you get into a lot of rolls, that adds up! Edit: I wish I could find out what time frame those errors were struck. That could really help with the search. As in, you could be more cautious when buying the boxed rolls when you know the strike date from the box.
I'm sure every so often someone posts a roll of 2005-D's on the bay and sells them for face, although it's likely infrequent. In the past 3 boxes of nickels Ive searched I've found a good amount of 2005-D's (although where I live is typically full of D-mintmarks), I think for now I'm going to keep them in mind whilst searching boxes, I agree that it's not worth it to buy rolls over face to search for them... well... It could actually be well worth it; I'm much too cheap to gamble, though
I have about 50 rolls of the 2005-D, both OBW & Mint-wrapped, and the equivalent of 2 - $50 bags that I put into tubes. The bags were never searched. The nickels went straight into the tubes. Chris
Just curious, if you don't search them, why are you keeping them or why did you buy them to begin with?
