and the last roll held 7 buffalo's including 4 no-daters which I'd like to restore but don't know how.

how do you restore them?

so I found a total of 15 Buffalo nickels which includes the 1917 and 1918.

Soak in white vinegar for a few days and you should be able to bring some if not all of the date out.

Nice finds by the way!
