1954 S Roll of nickels came in the mail today. Need help

08HALA20

I just received a 1954 s nickel roll in the mail today.
Anyone know where I can find or can tell me what to look for in this roll.
I know there is suppose to be a s/d in this year.
Not even sure what that is.

Looks in pretty good shape. 1 end is tightly wrapped the other looks like it was opened.
Seller assures me they owned it since 1954 and it was never opened.

The reverse showing has marks on it and of course no steps.
the lettering on it looks very well struck but the Jeff memorial looks lame.

The obverse showing looks not strong strike with some marks on it.

The 1954-S/D is a VERY obvious overmintmark. If you have any, you'll know.

Here you go - look for the lower part of the D sticking down below the S:

Thanks Jody526,

Can anyone advise on a book or websight for errors on 1964s nickels?

I figure while I check them out for possible submission I can keep my eye open for errors.

Check out www.conecaonline.org Also check out Jason Taylor's site at www.varietynickels.com

Welcome to the world of variety collecting. You might want to check out the Jefferson books available at www.stantonbooks.com www.coinsupply.com www.brooklyngallery.com
I'm sure that there are other sites but the above mentioned have great prices.

I haven't bought the RPM or Doubled Die books yet but as soon as I get the funds, I intend to do so.
