Hadn't tried to clean this one till last night. Found out it was carved out and the voids full of dirt. Somebody destroyed a fairly good Buffalo nickel.

I like it.
What are the odds of actually finding such a unique piece??
 

Probably a cooler way to destroy a Buffalo nickel than the untold millions that were (and are) domed and made into buttons .
That's good work with a drill, and a tiny jewelers saw blade to create that !
 

Nice piece!
 

Cool! I wish I had it!

sent from a potato...
 

that is a cool find.I would take that over any typical buffalo any day.I just hope it wasn't that 37-D three leg I have wanted to find all these years.
 

Nice jewelry to coin conversion artifact there !!
 

My daughter has a pair of ear rings made the same way from buffalo nickels.
 

still a nice find, wouldn't hurt my feelings to find one
 

That is a great find, reminds me of those hobo nickels Iv'e seen a couple of times posted on the site!
 

how cool is that, it may make it worth more actually. good find.
 

I cut a lot of coins like that in the late 70's and gave them to people. I should have stamped my initials on them. Lol. They were real popular jewelry back then. I think it's a cool find!
 

Nice dig and thank you for sharing those pictures . I would trade 10 of the buffalos I have dug this year to dig one of those , they are cool
