Buffalo coin set- help me out...

buffnut

Ok so I decided to put together a US coin type set that featured the buffalo (or bison, whatever). I'm not worried about regular business issues, so here is what I have so far:

2006 Gold buffalos (MS and PF)
2001 Silver buffalos (MS and PF)
2005 Bison nickels (PF, SMS-P, SMS-D)
2005 Kansas quarters (PF clad, PF silver, SMS-P, SMS-D)
1913-1938 (TY1, TY2, can't afford PF!)

Any others that I missed?

Just getting into the Buffs. Send me yours so I can learn more.
I am really starting to like the Buffs. I also believe they are a sleeper right now. jws

Grab a red book and look at the modern commems, there are several (like the yosemite) that prominantly feature the buffalo.

isn't the 2007 montana quarter featuring a buffalo skull, or does that not count

Ah, I found my red book. 1991 mount rushmore half dollar, the yellowstone 1999 dollar commem were the ones I was thinking of. I thought there was another... but i guess not.

Cool idea. I really like both the gold and silver 1 oz buffalos in hand. --Jerry

How about the 1776 - 1976 "Bison-tennial" quarters, halves, and dollars?

If you can afford two ounces of pure gold then you can afford a proof Buffalo Nickel.

Isn't there a second State QTR with a Buffalo on it?

Yep-North dakota. It has TWO bisons.

Bad english! I meant two Bison!

Holy frejoles- I hope that's all. This buffalo venture is getting expensive- it may end up going on Ebay in the end! With all the variations of the North Dakota quarter, I'm up to 23 coins. This doesn't count the 1991 Rushmore and 1999 Yellowstone comems.

Now if I could only twist NGC's arm into letting me do a 6 coin holder for something other than a mint/proof set, then I could have a rather attractive set of multiholders! Here is how I originally planned it:

Holder #1:
Gold buffalo MS
Gold buffalo PF
Silver buffalo MS
Silver buffalo PF
Buffalo nickel ty1
Buffalo nickel ty2

Holder #2
North Dakota silver PF
North Dakota clad PF
North Dakota SMS P
North Dakota SMS D
North Dakota business strike P
North Dakota business strike D

Holder #3
Kansas silver PF
Kansas clad PF
Kansas SMS P
Kansas SMS D
Kansas business strike P
Kansas business strike D

Holder #4
Bison nickel PF
Bison nickel SMS P
Bison nickel SMS D
Bison nickel business strike P
Bison nickel business strike D

I think I will email them and see if I can get them to make an exception. I spoke with their multi-holder rep on the phone, but he didn't seem to want to budge on the 5 coin limit. That's a pity- there are a lot of cool sets that would look great in a multi holder, but they consist of six coins.

I'm not giving up yet...
