First buffalo nickel finds!
So last night after closing at the store my manager cracked open a roll of nickels and yelled down to me "hey i got some funny lookin nickels up here want them?" And i said sure of course... so they were 3 buffalo nickels all with dates... a great 37 an ok 36 and a rough 36... ill take it though especially through these hard times of CHR!

R.I.P. Rich Hartford, You'll be missed.
NICE score!!! got to love getting old coins at work, and you're being paid to be there... I am guessing they came from a CWR?

Told ya guys there is a coincidence sequence happening. Today a teller saved me a 1956 12 sided nickel which is not as rare as buffalo, but is quite uncommon.
Nice find there, still looking to find my first non-Jefferson nickel from US.
