1950 D is considered to be a key date for Jefferson nickels although values have dropped in recent years. Assuming your coins are genuine (they're often counterfeited, so you'd need to have them examined by an expert) retail values as of 10/2015 range from $5 for very worn coins to $11 for those in almost-uncirculated condition.

Pat has 5.80 in nickels and dimes. If there are 73 coins in all how many of them are dimes?
Let's say the number of dimes Pat has is D. The number of nickels would then be 73 - D. The total value of the dimes is 10D cents, and the total value of the nickels is 5(73 - D) cents. Since the total value is 580 cents (5.80 dollars), we can set up the equation 10D + 5(73 - D) = 580. Solving this equation would give us the value of D, which represents the number of dimes Pat has.
