    in all honesty, no but coin dealers can determine the year, just simply stroll along and see what they say!

    based on the judge grading on this coin it can range from 10 bucks to 35 bucks and also price can range on buyers preference, if they like the wear, the details, theres always different aspects to buying a coin, i love the 1930-1950's nickels because they have a faint black leftover in the details making it look cool

    I had someone tell me to let the nickel soak in olive oil and that can make the date pop out more is this true or is this person BS me

    its bs because you basically clean them. anything you use on it destroys the outter coating. and boom, now you have material value.

    It's vinegar on nickels but it will alter the surface. If you can tell what it is, no need to soak it?

    I didn't plan on cleaning I would never clean just wanted to know if I can get the date to show through more but I can make out what it is so I'll just leave it alone

    yeah that is probably the best. having trouble with seeing the date is one of the most frustrating things when buying circulated buffalos
