    I am building a set of Buffalo Nickels from Coin Roll Hunting and Date Restoration. Here are photos of the set to date. You can see where there are coins missing and the date of the missing coin.

    There are about 200 in the Jefferson set. I have all but one from coin roll hunting. I still need to find a 1939-D in a coin roll. I found a 1939-S yesterday.

    Fun project! And you’ve had similar success as I had. I suppose others will or have their own similar results.

    Hey @Inspector43 how did i miss this? I didn't know you were working on a set of Buffalo Nickels, now. Glad to see you doing it. I'll try to follow along.

    Who else might be building a circulation set for Buffalo? I’d be interested to know.

    I am getting the coins from coin roll hunting and most of them need to be restored. Most purists would not want them in their collection because of that. I don't care myself because the date is the date. It is a fun project. Thanks for the feedback.

    @Inspector43 when you treat the dateless nickel to restore the date, you do the entire nickel? Just wondering?
