I dug my first Buffalo Nickel today! Even though it's not terribly old-1924, it's extremely cool. I think my heart actually skipped a beat! Found some other interesting items, but not sure what they are yet. . . As soon as I can get pictures I will post, and get y'all to help me identify! Nice little afternoon find! Really cheered me up!
Amy ;D

Great find Amy!! I love finding Buffalo's.. Thats a good sign for you also that you dug one, it means your digging those low tones and Gold will certainly follow if you keep digging them.. Congrats again,

Any early buffalo you can read the date on is a great find! Congrats!
 
Re: My first Buffalo! How Cool is that?

Way to go , I like the IH nickels they are one of my favorites and nothing wrong with a 1924 :headbang:
 
Re: My first Buffalo! How Cool is that?

Will hopefully just keep getting better for you :icon_thumright:
I found my 1st Buffalo in 1975 at age 12 - my son actually lives right across from
the old school that I found it at - mine the date was worn smooth
but remember I was excited all the same

:) :icon_thumright: never pass up a nickel signal!!!! (that is what I thought I was digging up when I found the ring in my avatar pic!) good work, and congrats on your Indian head!

UPDATED-WITH PHOTO
 
Today I found my 12th one this year , at the same park .
 
That's a nice find ! Took me seven years to find my first (and only buffalo nickel - a 1929) I was so stoked I was calling people in other states
to tell them about my find !
 
That is Great!!..I remember before i found my first Buff...I would have rather found a Buff then a Silver....Great find and having one with a date!
 
The Red Man,

That is how I find them,not many with dates though,NICE Coin!! Hope you're still swingin,lots of stuff to find. GodBless Chris
