    Incredible for sure. In a box of 50 rolls of nickels, I found more than one complete roll (40+) Buffalo Nickels. There were 6 in one roll.

    I don't know what to do. The coin is very bright and shiny with clear fields. Less light will make it look black.

    You wonder what they were thinking when they made 20 cent coins, 2 and 3 cent coins. At least yours has some detail ken. Mine is a slicker.

    I’m sorry to say that the damage is beyond repair. It looks like the coin was dipped and not rinsed off properly.
