Nickel update! I've found three more book fillers for my Jefferson album 1 book this week. My mom gave me the album for Christmas left over from her coin hobby pre-kids and my dad gave me his silver nickel collection from when he was a kid, so I've only found one of the war nickels myself, but it's a "family" project so it counts.
