<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 24795425, member: 100459"]I have about 200 Buffalo Nickles that my father left me. About 30 don't have a readable date on them. I would like to know more about how you used some type of acid to use so that I can see those dates. I've had them since 1996. I didn't get my part of his coin collection until my mother passed in 2005. When I got my share of the collection, I went through them all. I went to coin stores and thrift stores, and any other place they might be. I was retired then and needed to find a way to keep me out of my wife's hair. I built model airplanes for many years. The resulting airplanes were either sold or given away. When I got interested in coin collecting, I had about 3,000 models sitting on the shelf. I put an ad in the Fine Model magazines. I got about $2,500 for the models and I put them to better use. I didn't get into a buying frenzy buy coins with them. I bought magazines about coins. There, I learned a great deal from many people, some professional, some hobbyists, and others that just like to look at them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
