I had never dug one before yesterday ... cross this one off my list ... 1920 D Buffalo Nickel. Found at old park dating back to the 1890s that I had been to lots of time ... never hunted out.

Congrats on the Buffalo! I have only found 1 also.
 

Nothing Listed in my 2018 Mega Red Coin Book,especially for Nickels over 600 pages just for Nickels . But does you coin look like the rear leg might has a shadow of another leg also behind it . Does the letters five cent also show some doubling-goldnugget
 

Very nice Buff!!!!! Great save with a date on an old Buff!!!! :occasion14:
