Nice find And the fact that it only has a mintage of 5.3 Million sweetens the deal!

Great find! I've found Canadian coins, cents mostly, in my change, but didn't know if you often found US coins in yours.

well I live in the metro Vancouver area, and through roll hunting, I find at least $100 worth of mixed quarters, dimes and nickels a week in US funds. which lead me to open a US bank account.

So now I have actually ordered a box of halfs, so I am hoping my luck knows no borders.

At this point, I have found 2 Buffalo's in the wild: a 1913-D Type I and a 1917-P.

Yeah, it is definitely really cool when you find old coinage in circulation.
