<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CollectorsConcierge, post: 3337582, member: 101085&quot;]Hello and greetings, I’m a new member and apparently I’ve already violated the rules so my apologies. I joined yesterday but read over the rules this morning and violated rule number three subsection C because I left my email contact in my first post. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I purchased estates&nbsp; and came across this strange buffalo nickel.&nbsp;&nbsp; I consider myself an amateur numismatist I have a bunch of reference books but I can’t find anything relating to this nickel in any of my books or on the Internet. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would love someone to send me in a direction to do more research or if you happen to of heard about this type of nickel please share your knowledge.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I thought I was cleaning off a bit of gunk on the back of the nickel when actually the color of the nickel chipped off a little. With the jewelers loop I investigated further to find middle striations through this ceramic/clay substance on the interior of the nickel.&nbsp; I thought it may have been a play token or part of a game but it’s entirely too exact a replica With a strange infrastructure to be considered a toy. I thought it may be a Proto type or an example or sample but I have limited experience in this field. The first photo is a regular buffalo nickel side-by-side with the piece I found and the other photos are closer detail.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
