<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 26634630, member: 15309"]Every once in a while, my Jefferson Nickel dealings yield me a Buffalo Nickel or two. This 1936 was included in a page of mostly circulated Buffs. Not only does this coin look uncirculated, the luster profile appears prooflike. I know that there were proofs made in 1936, but this coin lacks the detail that we would normally expect from a proof, and they are rare and valuable and unlikely to just fall into your lap.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/HDhlEjX.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/nOcHcMF.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The other problem is that the coin is scratched badly in front of the braid on the jawline and neck, and it is worse than appears in the photos.
