Found this in my first nickel box!

I'm pretty happy about this, 95% of the box was uncirculated so this was amazing to get. I think I like looking through nickel boxes a little more than pennies.

Quit now while you're ahead!

Other a start. Congrats
Sure, at first it does appear to be a common buffalo? But at further looking, it may have that stretching appearance (dd)?
Esp. the "9".
Maybe?

Someday you may even find the holy grail of Jefferson nickels, the circulated condition '50-D. My mind reels at the prospect of finding one of these in PO-1.
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron."

@NordlandSalmon... Nice find... The Buffs are becoming scarce. I still get one in change occasionally... got one a few months ago. I pay with cash a lot, so get change... To look for W quarters. I got a Buff in the Coinstar last year. Cheers, RickO
Nice going. Not easy to find.
Full date and mintmark...nice find.
It's just the date flattening out due to wear.

Good score
