Congratualtions on your first Buffalo, may your coil find many more! :occasion14:
 

Excellent find.
One bucket lister at a time.
Congratulations
 

I've found a few and they were all in really bad shape. The way the coin was designed the dates wore of fast. They are still exciting to find though. Congradulations.
 

I found a buffalo on my very first outing metal detecting. (I have never found another)
 

Took me almost 2 yrs to find my first, have found several now, but all are dateless, congrats on your first, a cool moment!
 

Congrats on your first Buff. It's funny how you remember your first so clearly later on. I remember my first wheat, buff, merc, silver GW, war nickel. Now if I can just find so I can remember my first IHP, seated, SLQ, silver half, gold doubloon, giant gold nugget.....ahh the list goes on
 

It's a great find regardless of the date (or non-date), so cheers to you mate! :occasion14:
 

Congrats - I found my first in 1975 at age 12 - and I'm still at it
Hope the finds keep coming for you :icon_thumright:
 

there will be many more promise
 

Nice job nice nickel. Congrats
 

Took me almost 2 yrs to find my first, have found several now, but all are dateless, congrats on your first, a cool moment!
Mine had a very legible date of 1938 and was pristine except that it had turned an Orange rusty color. I gave it to my son who dug it. We have a symbiotic relationship. I swing, he digs. It is a beautiful thing for my old aching back!
 

Strange but true.......once you break the ice on a bucket lister, more just seem to follow. Congratulations...........
Now go check off another!!
