Hey guys, haven't posted in a while been way to busy with baseball:
but any ways lets get to the coin!
so I searched some nickels and got a couple dateless buffalo nickels .
today I put the acid on them and I found out one of them was 1913 s type 2 !!! and another was a 1919 d buff not a key but still good
I need your help to figure out the value of a key date coin like this, How much less is it worth with the acid?
How much is it worth????
Any help would be great thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what do you think??
 

I've always herd (ha, buffalo joke) that if you have to use Nic-a-date or something to get the date back, the nickel is only worth anywhere from 10-50% of the value as the nickel would have been if the nickel was in Good or Fair shape. Not 100% sure on that, but that sounds right. As always, it is only worth what someone will pay for it.

Great finds (wish I could see it, your pictures are extremely tiny!)

I did that to my buffaloes too. I got a few nice ones, a 1915 d just remembering off the top of my head.
 

Yeah
I had like a hundred and most of them were 14 15 16 17 and 18

I'll try to get better pics
For some reason that how they we're.
 

I did a quick search of ebay completed auctions. From what I saw, acid dated 1913-S T2 buffs sold in a range from $17.50-$41.00.
