Finally I bought a 1913-D Buffallo Nickel Type II. I have been looking for one of these for probably ten months+ or so everywhere. This includes a show here in Tampa and in Orlando back in January. The problem I was having was all the ones I looked at were so worn out I didn't think they were worth having, so good I couldn't afford, so shiny they glowed in the dark, or acid treated. Now I'm like a kid waiting to open the presents under the tree at Christmas. I want this coin to get here so bad I can taste it, I love this hobby. Borgovan, I don't know if I thanked you for your time advice you gave me a few weeks on a Buffalo Nickel that was up for auction. I bid exactly what you said the coin was worth plus $0.99. It looked as though it was mine, but in the last 3 or 4 minutes a couple of "newbies" bid the price up in a bidding war that was way too high. It worked out okay, using your advice and price on that one I got another one.
I almost get a feeling of "VICTORY" when I find a coin after such a long period. I forgot to mention some were way over priced. I noticed this especially back in January in Orlando, but I also noticed a lot of people were interested in these.
Thanks guys. I think we need to do a study if coin collecting keeps one young or at least young at heart.
