Nice buff! Have gone through 3 boxes of nicks and only gotten 3 war nickels, no buffs.

I see you found more 40s than 50s in your first box, I love it when that happens. It's like a game I play while searching. Those plastic pennies kill me. I've found a few in CWR myself. I wish every box could be like your #3. I could be quite content with that. Welcome to the madness.

Nice buff. Date looks really good. I'm trying to fill my dansco folder with coin roll hunted buffalo. HH

Thanks! I ordered some Whitman folders off amazon. Are Danscos preferable?

I used to have the whitmans. I wish I would have just went ahead and bought the danscos bcs I replaced them all with danscos. Could have saved me a little money. They are worth the extra money in my opinion.

It's hit or miss. Keep at it and the buffs will come.

Box-4

75% 2013d

2x 40's
6x 50's

 

[Coppercrazy]

That's rough, I got a box of like at least 80% 2013 cents and there were some copper and others mixed in. I just didn't bother going through it after the first 4 rolls.

Box - 5

4x 40's
11x 50's
2009d
1967 error?
3 Canadian 5 cents

Two boxes of nickels back to back is tough work! I posted about the error in a separate thread, any expert info is appreciated!

 

[CladSmoke]

I always like I when I find a 69 or older Canadian. Nice box, interesting error (?) too!

Thanks. I'll trade it all for that 27 buff in your box 110. Tough day for nickels today. Luckily I had a solid silver day to offset it.

I got a feeling you'll find at least one buff before you hit box 15... Might even have a small heard by 20!

8x 1940's
14x 1950's
2x 2009d

Im not so sure about that. Ive gone through more than 20 boxes and i havent found one yet.

My average is 1 buffalo per $202 searched.

I've found 1 in 6 boxes so far.
