A Small Project, Buffalo Nickel Date Set Video Playlist

ChrisH821ChrisH821 Posts: 6,565 ✭✭✭✭✭

I put together a playlist of my Buffalo Nickel date set. Each coin has a short obverse and reverse video to show how the light plays off the surface. I figured a few people here will enjoy and appreciate the project.
I'm not sure if it will work properly embedded here or if you need to open it in YouTube.


Press play and enjoy. My favorites in the set are probably the 1917 and the 1924.

    Very cool! When I read playlist I thought that perhaps you would have accompanying music with it. Maybe the 1812 Overture or something! My favorite of the coins I fully viewed was the 1915.

    @TomB Thanks! If I combined them into one video then I could add some (royalty free) music. But since they are individual videos per coin per side that would not be possible. I left them separate so that single ones can be viewed/posted easier.
    I like the 1915 also, that's the one I bought almost sight unseen https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1079370/on-buying-coins-with-terrible-pictures-how-about-good-pictures-of-terrible-holders#latest

    Superb presentation. I love all of your buffalo nickels too. You have a great eye for beauty 👍

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Very nicely done.... I like the way the views change and detail can be evaluated. Cheers, RickO

    Great looking Buffs thanks for sharing, always a treat to see. That 24 is a Blazer I can see why you love it, I sure do too. Thanks again for your video.

    You 1925 rev and 1926 obv are in the wrong order.

    I absolutely LOVE your 1915. Great color!

    Thanks Joe! There are a couple that I want to upgrade for either eye appeal or strike reasons. Overall I am very happy with the set as it is.

    Speaking of strike, when I first saw your 1929, I was blown away. Then I saw it was an S mint, not a P mint. :lol:

    Very nice!

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    Thanks, that 29-S is about a good a strike as it gets so I'll probably never find a better one to upgrade it. If it were a P mint it would be a unicorn.
    I have a raw 36-D with a phenomenal strike that rivals that one. I posted about it here if you'd like to see it. https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1078867/an-uncommon-common-coin#latest

    I have a 36-P with a similar strike, but my 36-D can't touch that one. Bravo!
