Went on my 2nd hunt of the day, didn’t realize it was Labor Day, so when I woke up from my nap I told myself I gotta get SOMETHING today. So I went back at it for 2 hours and hit me a 1936 Buffalo Nickel. Glad to have it. IMG_0012.JPG IMG_0012.JPG

Nice find! I was thinking that may be a three legged buffalo but I think they were only 1937

A2 it’s a numbers game, luck and location. But the more holes you dig the better and I’m nothing but a lowlife dirty digger!!!! : laughing

Me too.. location and a little luck.. You could always chop one of those legs off and have a 3 legger. I wish we could add mint marks I have a 1916 merc no D a 1909 vdb no s and I have a 1916 or 17 quarter the 16 is the rare one I cant tell.

Thanks Hawk I haven’t gotten one in awhile ever since they changed the rules at City Park in New Orleans. I’ve gotten so many Buffalos there, but it’s weird I’ve gotten mote V Nickels there than Buffalos. Like twice as many and lots of war Nickels. My ATP was a nickel beast.
