Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 12/03/2006 2:02 pm The coin was never verified as being anything,, there was some anomolies in the loops of the 8 and I suggested that a closer look be taken ? Nice pics stmpcol. You must have got the QX ? Rick Report this Post to the Staff
crystalk64 Pillar Of The Community 3147 Posts	Posted 12/03/2006 3:01 pm I am not real sure why anyone would counterfeit a Buffalo nickel but I am sure that is NOT the 8 over 7. I will agree something is going on with this nickel that is rather strange? Report this Post to the Staff

thingee Pillar of the Community United States 2177 Posts	Posted 12/04/2006 9:35 pm I was looking at a buffalo last weekend in AU or better, don't remember, at a local dealer in my area. He's asking $20. I don't recall the date either since I was in a rush and didn't bring $$ with me so I would'nt get careless and buy just anything. I need to go back and get that info and do a little research. But It sure was nice and SHINY. Report this Post to the Staff
