Certain US nickels have shown solid price trend
appreciation over long periods of time. These are generally considered
rare nickels and have always been popular with collectors, providing
the impetus for sustained value growth as far into the future as we can
see. |
Obviously, there are more than just a couple of
Buffalo Nickels that should be considered as bullish five cent coins.
Eventually, a few half dimes will be listed, as well as Shield Nickels
and Liberty Nickels. There are significant rarities in all these
groups, worthy of the "bullish" label. The early issues are relatively scarce when
compared to rest of the
group, yet remain in abundant supply. Believe it or not, dates from the
1930's and 1940's can still be plucked out of circulation. Young
collectors (or anyone for that matter!) can have loads of fun searching
nickel rolls for the older stuff.

Nazi rally in Nuremberg, Germany. Throughout much of the 1930s, while the US was mired in the Great Depression, military dictatorships in Germany, Italy, and Japan were busy preparing for war. Pacifism in the US and Great Britain helped enable the rise of the Axis powers, sowing the seeds for the most catastrophic conflict in human history. |
