After paying for my things at a gas station, the automated coin disperser gave me my change. I thought I was given a Canadian coin because one looked unfamiliar.

Out of curiosity I look at what makes them valuable. I eventually saw that there is a valuable 1936, a Buffalo with a handicap. I looked at my coin and other pictures, then back at mine. All signs point to having a 3 1/2 legged Buffalo.</p><p><br /></p><p>I became very excited and thought about what it may be worth, but then started to notice other things.

After paying for my things at a gas station, the automated coin disperser gave me my change. I thought I was given a Canadian coin because one looked unfamiliar. After further inspection, it was a Buffalo Nickel. Cool I thought! Not something you see everyday and I know they're worth more than 5 cents. I did a little research and was disappointed when I saw that my 1936 wasn't worth much. Out of curiosity I look at what makes them valuable. I eventually saw that there is a valuable 1936, a Buffalo with a handicap. I looked at my coin and other pictures, then back at mine. All signs point to having a 3 1/2 legged Buffalo. I became very excited and thought about what it may be worth, but then started to notice other things. The biggest thing is letter underneath the denomination.
