| Bagged a second buffalo today - good condition, a 1937. Not bad for two buffalos out of three boxes! |
I enjoy taking long walks off short piers. |

The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; second is war. Both bring a temporary (and false) prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunities. |

| We've just passed the two-roll milestone! Keep up those hunting efforts. At this rate, we'll fill six rolls with buffalos by year's end. |

| This is very strange; I have done near ten boxes of nickels, and I have not run across a buffalo one! Something is up, and I'm not liking it. |
Am I a good person doing bad things? Or a bad person doing good things? |

Corsair, My result depend on my source bank. Bank A is iffy on War nickels, but ok on buffaloes. Bank B is ok on buffaloes and just OK on War nickels. I try to get boxes from both banks every week. I suggest trying a different source.
Good Luck!
And BTW I've done approximately 50 boxes of nickels this year. |

| My first find ever! A nice, worn, dateless buffalo. I'm still happy. |
Am I a good person doing bad things? Or a bad person doing good things? |
