Nice hobo nickel, that might be worth a pretty penny too, could you provide a close up of the "intentionally damaged" buffalo nickel?

Also, looks like that hobo nickel is a 1913 raised mound, a 1-year type coin... way to go.

Nice find. Like BB said besides it being a 1913 raised mound, it is a Hobo nickel. Been looking for one of those through a lot of nickels now. That is a great nickel to get.
