This is the big one. A barely readable 1918, but it's number 40. A whole roll this year. |

I have found 3 that I can remember. I work at a liquor store so I find all kinds of neat coinage. |
I am an organized coin collector. |

I found a '28 in an old dresser I have had since I was a kid. I was breaking it apart to take to the dump and found it at the very bottom. That makes a total of 4 buffalo's I now have. |

1 box- 9 buffaloes!!!...2x1928, 1x1929, 1 exceptional high grade 36S, and 4 dateless. |
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. |

Bought a box on a whim, to search through with my 6-year-old daughter. I was hoping to find a few silver nickels. Here's what I got:
1 dateless buffalo - worth a few cents. 1 new 6-year-old coin collector - priceless!

Share the good stuff, everyone. Send some of it my way in rolls.
Haven't had anything decent in nickels in quite some time, except that one 2009 and the couple of Buffalo nickels but that has been quite some time now. Long cold streak of nothing interesting. But with each new roll I open, I can always hope.
Enjoy. |
