Thanks. My dad sent me his coin collection and I wanted to be sure I gave him a fair price.

Dealers (including us) in this area pay 10-15 cents each for them, and sell them for around 20 cents each. Not much profit, and not too many collect them except for the few that will date restore them and hope to find some key dates.

My hobby: collecting real money 1 copper cent or nickel at a time.

Some jewlers will pay about the same as noted already. They use them to make jewlery. You could too. Just drill a hole in one, place a Silver Chain through it, give to a girl for Valentine's Day.

If I did that to my wife, she'd use that chain a nickel to whip my as*

what are key dates for buffalos? I haven't looked closely at them just enough to see they were buffs and to count them.

With Buffalo Nickels almost any of them are in some way key dates. The reason is that is one coin that is in big demand and in almost any condition. Of course there are many that are eally way up there in value, but even a common one in Good condition in the 193x area sells for several dollars. Naturally the 1913's are all rather on the high side in value. And that famous 3 legged 1937D really sells for a lot.
Odd that out of all the Nickels ever made, the Indian Head/Buffalo ones are the only ones that really are on the popular side.
