c_b_mazur New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 03:11 am I just finished up hunting a box of nickels from my local bank. I got some 40's and 50's, and a single slick Buffalo nickel. I spent about 30 minutes between the loop and the scope trying to get any part of a date but nothing would show up. I resorted to Nic-a-Date and now I kinda regret not taking it to a coin shop, for someone with more expearence to look at for a bit. I ended up discovering it to be a 1915 no mint mark buffalo.

Awesome find from the bank, while the Indian Heads still manage to find there way into circulation it's a thrill discovering one. Especially early or key dates. Keep searching and thanks for sharing.

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3628 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 12:26 pm Even without a date, a few specific years of the Buff can be identified from design changes: 1913 PDS Type I, from the reverse design 1921 PS, from the ribbons and knot redesign 1923 PS, from the left ribbon redesign 1925 PDS, from the left ribbon redesign 1931 S, from the left ribbon redesign Your coin could have been narrowed to three years (1913-1915) based on the Type II reverse, ribbon design, and weak LIBERTY.
