    How does an 1883 V nickel become a 1937 buff?

    They’re both a nickel- are you the Coin Uno Police?

    No, however the op states that you may post a coin that is the same date or type as the previous one. I was just wondering.
    I didn’t know whether type= e.g. Buffalo nickels or more general, like just nickels.

    This game works sort of like the "Crazy Eights" or "Uno" card games do, but only on a very basic level. (For one thing, it never ends, haha.)

    HOW TO PLAY:

    1. If the last coin posted was a regular-issue U.S. coin, you have to post a coin of the same date OR the same type (NOT just the same denomination).

    -US commemoratives, Hard Times and Civil War Tokens, or patterns can be considered all one "type". So if the last person posted a 1920 Pilgrim half dollar, for example, you may play any US commemorative coin OR anything dated 1920. Likewise, an 1863 Civil War token could be followed by any other Civil War token or any coin at all dated 1863.

    1. If the last coin posted was a foreign coin, you have to post a coin of the same date OR from the same country (type or denomination do not matter in this case.)
      -If you post a non-US coin, though, be sure to type in the country, since the next player might not be familiar with it, and will need to know where to play from. Please, no undated pieces like tokens or ancient and medieval coins. (Much as I love 'em, they don't have a place here).

    2. Dual- or triple- dated coins (like Bicentennial issues, for example) are sort of "wild cards" for the next player.

    For example, if I post a "1776-1976" Bicentennial quarter, the next person has three options: he or she may post a Washington quarter OR a 1976-dated coin OR a 1776 dated coin.

    Get it? It isn't as hard as it sounds.

    Here, I'll start.

    So the next person has to either post a coin dated 1842, or a SEATED half dime (not just any type of half dime). Get it?

    As long as the game's gone on denomination has served for 'type'.
    I, for one don't think you're wired 'too tight'. I peg you as inquisitive.

    Interesting to see two G4s that are so different in details.

    @CRHer700 Right?? I bought that 95-O out of a group of 3. That one and another were G4 and the other was G6 (All CACG). That one was the nicest by far. Looks under graded to me. Price guides are just guides. No 2 coins are alike. Buy the coin not the holder.

    CACG is supposed to be conservative, so this coin fits the description.
