November is half gone, and I still have not seen a single 2008 nickel. I've been looking for them for my collection, my wife's, and also for Triggersmob. I've tried my bank, my credit union, my friends who are clerks in stores, and of course my daily pocket change. Anybody have any idea why there are no 2008 nickels in circulation, at least in western Colorado?  |

Gary, we have the same problem in West Australia (W.A.), so much so that we recon that W.A. means wait awhile.
I am only just starting to see Scout $1 coins in circulation now. Other Aussie members have seen them months ago.

I've seen 2008's in all denominations, especially nickels and quarters. I'll keep my eye out for some nice new nickels.

Does anyone still need 2008 nickels? I've been roll searching lately and have been seeing plenty of them. I'm about to go through another ten rolls and I'll be very surprised if I don't find any '08's. They'll be circulated of course.

Adam, At your convenience, please send me a couple. I'll mail one to Triggersmob, and put the other in my collection. Thanks. |

I would appreciate 1 or 2 of each from each mint. I'll send you something that I'm sure you'll find interesting.  |

With the economy in the crapper I am afraid we are going to see coins later, and in smaller mintages. Come to think of it, the most recent nickel I have gotten is a 2007 - and I don't even see the new 2004 onwards nickels that much.

Ok everybody. At the moment all I have on hand a 08 D's. Give me 3 or 4 days to see if any P's turn up, and then I'll get this organized.

Well, I hit the 2008 nickel jackpot today, lol. Plenty of P's and D's. I already have the address for the headquarter of Burke Turtle Service, so Gary I will send some for you and some for Triggersmob. Nevol, I think I may have your address somewhere, but please PM it to me just in case I can't find it, and I'll send you some nickels. I'll probably have both packages in the mail in the morning.

Thanks Adam, Believe it or not, I STILL HAVEN'T seen a 2008 nickel!! While I'm working at the hospital gift shop this afternoon, I'll go through a bag of nickels, but I'm sure the result will be the same. Just not any in western Colorado. |

I've heard alot of people say that actually. I actually had someone on another forum who didn't believe me when I told him I had some, lol. I had to post pictures  I've been joking that all of them must have gotten shipped straight to Missouri. |
