<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 3793262, member: 106826"]From a numismatic standpoint, if a coin can’t be established it’s basically worth face value or spot material. Even then there are limitations. Tons of worn out coins have made it into jewelry or fashioned into Hobo Nickels. There still some mileage and interest. For me, I have an objective to create circulation sets as complete as possible for Vs, Buffalos, and Jefferson nickels. Jefferson is easy enough with time. Much harder to nearly impossible for the other two. However, with Buffalo I think it can be done if a person uses ‘pickled’ nickels. If I look at both circulation sets, I think I’m reasonably close. To be honest, I am excited to find dateless as it provides the opportunity to fill another spot in the pickled nickel set. Fun and interesting. Here is a nickel picked off the ground in a parking lot a couple weeks back. Imagine the life of this circulation find.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
