A local house is known as the "Chicken Ranch" as the owners keep a number of the birds.

They have this little item on display, a bowl or cup with 13 Indian Head or Buffalo nickels:

Buffalo-Nickels-At-The-Chicken-Ranch
Bowl with nickels

Buffalo-Nickels-At-The-Chicken-Ranch
A closer look at the nickels

Most of the nickels appear to have dates in the 1930's.

Interesting!

They do need to replace two of the three screws. It would make it look a little less damaged where someone has tried to steal the coins in the middle of the night.
