Hadn't noticed that - it would be a good investment, I agree.

What variety is that 8 coin? Looks like it's missing the 1 of 18.

I am not an expert on Buffalo nickels, but could that 1915 be a Proof coin? There were 1050 of them minted and it looks a lot like the images on PCGS.

3 with really nice color and a fair amount in the set that look like 65,and 66 coins.

No I didn't get to buy anything, but looking over a old collection is always fun.

How would I confirm a Proof Strike on the 1915 as CWB stated, as it looks about 98% like the 3 I looked at on PCGS.

That is an absolutely gorgeous 1915. But I don't think LIBERTY and the adjacent rim are strong enough for this to be a proof.

Send the 15 to PCGS for conservation and grading,make sure to tell them you want to know if it is a proof and to put it through the conservation process.
