<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 265112, member: 68&quot;]The buffalos were very attractive coins even after many years of circulation.&nbsp; These are the coins I started collecting in 1957.&nbsp; Most of the other kids were collecting Lincolns but I always found the buffalos more attractive and more interesting.&nbsp; Of course they were also more valuable, and to me, more attractive.</p><p><br /></p><p>But they are no more historic than a 1968 quarter.&nbsp; If anything they are less so since they didn&#039;t circulate as long, as wide, or as freely as a clad coin.&nbsp; They didn&#039;t have a sesquicentennial issue nor were they followed by dozens of different designs over a ten year period.&nbsp; Indeed, by 1957 they were pretty staid and most of them lacked dates.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and clads are an acquired taste.&nbsp; It doesn&#039;t help that the majority of clad uarters are horribly made and often badly used.&nbsp; Finding nice attractive specimens is difficult.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
