Hi guys,
While CRHunting my Nickel bank box. I came across these three nickels. To most, nothing but 5c worth of 3 coins. To me, they caught my eye and interest! Esp. the last one.
First one,

1938p First year


Nothing really unique and rare but 1st one in the Jefferson Series.
Second One,

1986d


Might be environmental damage but still pretty in it's own little way.
Third One,

1936 Buffalo

What??? I weighed it. Normal!






Either Polished to Death, fake or a Proof?
Three unique Nickels. At least in my book.
Thanks for looking.

    My God, you can't really think that "polished to death" Buffalo could be a proof?

    @joeykoins .... Where are you seeing the D on the 1986 nickel? And the Buff is highly polished. Cheers, RickO

    LOL. That is NOT wishful thinking. If that coin were a proof, no one would ever want to buy one. Is that a Buffalo or a pig on the reverse?

    You should send all 3 in for grading and have Diggin' Dave do an hour long Youtube vid on them. ;)

    Maybe we can put a little lipstick on that pig. :D
