Henri Charriere Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 This is the type of coin I dug up in my elementary school garden. Whatever the cause they develop a dark sheen and are accompanied by uniformly consistent irregular wear. More so for silver. All things considered, this is quite a find -- with a story. rrantique 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Coinbuf Posted December 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2023 My herd of Buffalo coins is small, but I did recently add a couple of new coins to the corral. The PCGS TV does the coin little justice as the coin is much brighter then it appears and that carbon spot while certainly there looks far more intrusive than when viewed in hand, at least by me as the new owner.

powermad5000 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 (edited) I had to break down and get them on eBay @J P M. After looking at literally hundreds of listings, these were the best I could find. The D arrived with a ding on the steps unfortunately but otherwise would have been FS. I was unaware that they are kind of a modern "low mintage" until you made a mention of them on here in a post a while ago. The other downside is I had to buy off of stock photos which is something I really never do. But all the single coin listings were coins in much worse shape than these so I tried to choose two sellers that I thought would have the best specimens. Also, as a note, I buy all my coins raw and submit them. Edited December 18, 2023 by powermad5000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand, I on the other hand will not send anything in unless it is the last resort. LoL I have been looking for this one for a while. This is not rare but try to find one that does not say SMS on the label.

I meant while I may have a few nice nickels in my collection, they pale in comparison to some of the Top Pop's I've seen posted here in the forums.
