Lastly is this nice tag that at first I thought it was a dog owner ID tag, it actually turns out to be
From the brotherhood of railway trainmen, John W. Yingling was shown as railroad brakemen in the 1906/1908 Baltimore city directories.

Nice 8R, you were Buffalo-less for a long time there. Hopefully this is the start of a new streak for you. Good luck in your next hunt!

Lol, let’s hope for a small herd
 

All of these finds are great. i also like the tag but the pocket knife is really cool too. Those Buffalo nickel dates are always worn off. Almost every one I've ever found was like that.

Yes I’d say mine are half and half, half dated and half dateless.
 

Congats! Winning finds and great info! Best wishes.
 

Congratualtions on the nice finds! :occasion14:
