Mckinley_4th Valued Member United States 68 Posts	Posted 02/08/2018 08:59 am I wonder why this Buffalo nickel has this texter and look all all the way around? It doesn't look like scratches or anything to me, to cause the whole coin to look and feel like it does! And before you think that the pic if blurry, just know it literally looks exactly like it feels & vise versa. Edited by Mckinley_4th 02/08/2018 09:01 am Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 02/08/2018 09:12 am The picture reminds me of what coins look like after being in nitric acid for a little bit. I used to put a penny coins in nitric acid in the chemistry classes I was teaching as a dramatic way for my kids to remember nitric acid dissolves metals. I would pull the coins out at various stages for he kids to view. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

I know what it could be now, if I ever see any coins looking like this! But I did find it not to long ago going through old pig banks, and it always looked way off! So Thanks you guys!
