Here are my finds from the last 3 to 4 hunts. Tumbled all the clad and the tokens. I used lemon juice, warm water and jewelry media. Works great.
Found 35 tokens at a park on a volleyball court, largest spill for me. Found the bracelet at the beach and the charms in the tot lots.
Very surprised to find the buffalo at the beach, looks to be a good one to find.... tried to rotate the pics but no luck...
Total clad was about $25.30.....
Thanks for looking... HH & GL

Congrats on your first Buffalo Nickel. One of my favorite US coin designs. It's in remarkable condition. Nice clad hauls and other stuff too.:headbang:

A class VI doubled die is not like the 1955 Lincoln that shows separate letters or numbers. A class six doubled die has distended doubling towards the rim radiating from the center. This is most easily described and seen as a distorted extra thickness to the parts of the devices that are parallel to the rim.
Here are some close-ups of my DDO and a normal 36 for an easy comparison . Arrows are pointing to the pickup points on the doubled die.
