<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 1307334, member: 13650&quot;]I also have a set of buffalo nickels going.&nbsp; Mostly F to VF.&nbsp; Some VG.&nbsp; My main goal is for all to have a clear, original date.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I bought this book and found it to be very helpful.&nbsp; It discusses what you should look for with each date and mint mark in detail.&nbsp; It also explains why some years from some mints are almost impossible to find with a good strike.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Official-Red-Book-Buffalo-and-Jefferson-Nickels-8-New-Book-Free-Shipping-/120802064060?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item1c205d36bc" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Official-Red-Book-Buffalo-and-Jefferson-Nickels-8-New-Book-Free-Shipping-/120802064060?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item1c205d36bc" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Official-Red-Book-Buffalo-and-Jefferson-Nickels-8-New-Book-Free-Shipping-/120802064060?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item1c205d36bc</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;The buffalo nickel set is a moderately difficult set for a beginner.&nbsp; Even in lower grades.&nbsp; &nbsp; There are several higher dollar ones to get.&nbsp; Many of the later date ones from the 30s were made in mass, and are very common in high grade with clear dates.&nbsp; Some years are so common I&#039;d give them away to somebody if they needed them. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Then you get to the rarer ones and expect the same.&nbsp; Then you find out it&#039;s a few hundred dollars (or more), to get it.&nbsp;&nbsp; This has been a popular set so there is high demand for the keys.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; I think I have about 19 or 20 to go.&nbsp; I have around $900 invested in it and it&#039;s not a high grade set with several keys left to obtain.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
