    Good for you - there is a solution to the Buffalo - it's called Nic-A-Date, not sure if they still sell it.

    If you find somewhere selling Nic-A-Date, Rich Buck, you'll let me know, won't you ?:eggface: img304.jpg

    It's a well worn 1937. There, now you have a date. And you can take that to the bank. LOL

    Put it in white vinegar for a couple days then look at it.

    Nic-A-Date is mainly ferric chloride, which is sometimes available in Radio Shack or other such that might offer printed circuit board stuff, as it etches the copper. Not nice stuff though.

    Google can give you home-made recipes

    Amazon has ferric chloride also.

    No. My oldest nickel. I would never toss it away like that.

    Good hunting nice finds
     
  15. USING vinegar is not as obvious as nic a date and leaves the nickel intact
