[QUOTE="hwdbob, post: 64438, member: 3060"]You can get a product called Nic-A-Date ,which you can find at dealers or Ebay ,you just put a bit over the date area and it will eat away some of the metal & you will be able to see the date clearly.You have to be careful buying buffaloes online because some people will try to pass off acid treated nickels as untreated though they are usually easily told apart. I don't buy them but if you have some with no dates I always figured theres no harm in treating them because an acid treated key coin can be sold easily so long as you say it is and I would always treat a no-date coin that has a mint mark.By the way you can teat the mintmark area also.[/QUOTE]
