JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21586 Posts	Posted 07/02/2022 1:00 pm Almost forgot to the CCF Might be solder to convert into a piece of jewellery In any case it is PMD. Also coins are not printed, they are struck or minted and a Cud involves the rim. Edited by JimmyD 07/02/2022 1:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/02/2022 1:42 pm . Not a proof,a polished business strike most likely used as jewelry at one point. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/02/2022 1:46 pm Coin should be over weight. possible solder? Ruined a nice coin to show the reverse on something it was soldered to. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94795 Posts	Posted 07/02/2022 3:09 pm Quote: Might be solder to convert into a piece of jewellery I agree with this, This is the 2nd time we've seen a Buffalo nickel turned into jewelry and having the buffalo side being the 'show' side. A lot of solder was used here in an attempt to adhere it to a backing of some sort. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 07/03/2022 12:14 pm As has been said, not a proof and soldered onto something at one point. The scratches look like they are from when it was pried loose of whatever it was attached to. Report this Post to the Staff

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3628 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 09:01 am First, Your coin is a business strike, rather than a proof. IMHO, this coin was soldered to a money clip. Having the reverse facing out on cufflinks, tie tacks, and money clips is common in the Front Range, because of the number of CU graduates here. Way back in the day, my dad had a full set for just that reason. Report this Post to the Staff
kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 11:45 am I forgot about the CU connection. They've been the Buffaloes since 1934. NDSU (since 1919) and Howard U also have a bison. Of course there's also the Buffalo Bills. Plenty of reasons to mount the bison facing out. Report this Post to the Staff
