My early buffs

I love the early buffs, I think they offer a lot of bang for the buck which is 1. one of the best coin designs of all time IMO and 2. a coin at or over 100 years old. I would like to someday complete a full philly date run from 13-29 and then the "short set" from 31-38. The 16 shouldn't be too tough, but the 18 and 19 will give me fits.

All pics by none other than Joe aka crazyhounddog.

I bought most of these raw. Feel free to share your early buffs!

    I could imagine most buffalo nuts going after that 1915! I know I would.

    Agreed! Don't know how it's only a 62 though.

    That 1915 is a knockout! I've managed to assemble a high color date set myself but that '15 is much nicer than mine.
