Hello all.

Just want to get thoughts / opinions on Nic-A-Date.
I have about 40 dateless Buffalo nickels.
The average value of a no-date Buffalo nickel is between 10 cents
and 25 cents but if you can find out the date using Nic-A-Date
Wouldn't that be better value wise? I also have a lot of missing holes in my Buffalo nickel book and maybe some of these Nickles can fill them.

I know it's up to me to make the ultimate decision to use it or not but wanted to maybe get some pro's and Con's of using it.

Thanks in advance

Nic a date always ends with a damaged coin.

However, I've done a few just for fun, doubt there's much money to be made.

I wouldn't recommend it. The values will tank, even if it's a desirable key date. It's better to leave them as is.
