Oh give me a home where the buffalo roam, where the deer and the antelope play.I am sitting on a few unopened rolls myself. One day the ground will rumble and dust will rise over the horizon. I saw the winning design for the obverse was actually cropped version of another proposed entry. I kind of wish they would have used the full bust instead. I like the reverse.

No reverse pic?  Thanks for sharing that info NickelGuy, I was not aware of that. I'm undecided as to which I like better. All I know is the 2005 Bison is my favorite post-2003 design and I really wish they would have continued to mint it.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Oh I would be happier by a mile with the Bison, even with that obverse over this current face forward Jefferson nickel. I just think of the Mt Rushmore face when I see it and I'm OK. At least nobody is crawling on his face on the nickel. LOL  |

I always knew I didn't like the face-forward Jefferson and I recently discovered why. I'll have to get some pics before I explain it. Meanwhile...  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

It is nice to have a heard of Buffalo (Bison) to look at whenever needed.
