Hi Everyone,

I hope the cooler, wetter weather hasn't slowed you down too much!

I went out for a couple of hours today and found a dandy.

This is my first encased coin, my first Buffalo and my first fob...all in one...enjoy! (I sure am!)

Happy Hunting,

I had to double-check. NOPE, it's the thickness of a single nickel. It really is rotated off center, isn't it?! Hmmmm.....
