<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 5665497, member: 106826"]A dateless Variety 2. Probably an early teen. Sometimes the ribbon will help you diagnose a dateless 1920's specimen, but the ribbon on your coin indicates it's not from the '20s. You can mix white vinegar with hydrogen peroxide (50/50 mixture) in an empty pill bottle and put the nickel in it for a few minutes until a date/mm appears to see what you have. But doing so will erase any numismatic value. What I did was to create a Pickled Nickel set of the dateless Buffalo I've collected via CRH...I was curious how close I could come to building a full set of Buffalo Nickels. You may be surprised to see what is passing through circulation at this point. I've found dateless 1913 Type 1 and 2 nickels, 1913 D Type 1 and 2 nickels, and many low mintage early dateless/mm nickels. Pretty amazing and fun to do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
