No idea what I was getting. Seems I have a ton to learn here. So many variables to coins. It’s incredible. Thank you for any information.

    We all have to start somewhere. Your nickel is commonly referred to as a Buffalo Nickel. The mint truck these from 1913 to 1938. They are a very popular series for new as well as seasoned collectors. Nice pick.

    Adding on to that, in the coin's current condition it's likely worth a buck or two.

    Nice rainbow in your avatar. I do a yearly flyfishing trip into NC with several of my best friends. One of my best weeks of the year.

    That’s a south sandy steelhead out of Pulaski NY. I don’t know if you can just message me individually on here but I have pictures from my BC trip I could share.

    Have to be humble when you are new to a game with this many angles. It’s nice to see how helpful everyone is on this site. Think I picked a good one. Thank you

    I thought that was a Steelhead. The shape of its mouth was the key.

    Just do a new post and post your photos. That's what the General Discussion forum is for, non coins.

    Yes you did. I'm coming up on my 5th full year next month. It's fun and you learn a lot. Just stick with it and you'll see what I mean.
