Two firsts

[Timbermaster]

Found my first buffalo nickel yesterday on a trail in the woods. While wandering around I also found my first garnet filled boulder! (too heavy to carry back to my truck ☹️). Also dug a broken pick axe. On the way home there were pheasants everywhere!

Nice finds & pictures "Timbermaster" !!
You may know this, but for others who may not, the 1936-D
Buffalo has a a variety known as the "3 & 1/2 legged Buffalo". It has a greater value than the well-known 1937-D 3 legged variety. Check the reverse side for the "D" & the
3 & 1/2 legs. See link below. Good luck & thanks for the nice pics.
