I've also toyed with the idea of keeping the boxes sealed, but what fun would that be?
I pluck out all pre-1960's and the gemmy looking ones. Yesterday I found quite a few dated 1965 in MS-65+ condition, the luster is amazing. Looks like they were minted yesterday. I love finding coins that look like that. Haven't found any war nickels lately though.
A very friendly girl at one of my CU branches does not charge me any extra premiums for the boxes I order. I'll definitely be brining her a few nice Christmas presents this year!
