I bought my 2007 Sacs from the coin store, P & D both.  They may have some left, I can certainly find out for you?  They don't charge much, maybe not even the $1.50.

I bought mine yesterday from International Coin Company in Grand Junction, Colorado.

She picked out the best she had, and sold them to me for $1.50 each.

In the 60,s, 70,s and 80,s I could bet you, almost at any time, that you had a 64 nickel in your pocket and win the bet. Literally unheard of striking of the 64 nickel. We had a coin shortage in the 60s which they blamed on collectors, which was far from the truth, so huge numbers of various coins were minted to catch up with the system! Who knows, that 64 you found may have been someones piggy bank all these years?

When my wife and I worked on our Jefferson Nickel collections, probably one of every 10 nickels we searched through was dated 1964.

I was keeping all my 64 nickels in a pile for a while. I finally cashed in like 20 dollars worth.

These are off the QX5 microscope. The first is 10x, the other 2 are 60x. Here's one at 200x.
