Wild Buffaloes... the start of a small herd

I finally have something worth posting this month. My half finds are almost nonexistent of late, so I have spent my spare time working on building my daughter's penny set and searching a couple of boxes of nickels. Last night I had some luck on the nickel front. I found a 1955 (p) Jefferson, 2 war nickels 1942 and 1945 (p).

I have to say I was pretty happy with those finds. Then in my next-to-last roll, 2 dateless Wild Buffaloes rolled out. Lightning struck again in the last roll, producing a 1936 Buff. This has been my most productive nickel box this year. 6 total Buffs so far this year.

HH,
Karl
