What the NICKEL is that!?

[brendan1414]

So i was doing a box of nickels today, and so i find a 1943 war nickel to start, and then as im looking through i see this!

Great a war nickel, lets see what date:

um, WHAT! lol i sat and laughed for several minutes at this little novelty. Someone took the time to etch the mint mark (which is quite good i must say). im keeping it, and id almost rather have it then a war nickel. STILL NO BUFFALO

And by the time you do get a Buffalo, it's probably going to be dateless.

cool find! got a buffalo ender just now off a box of nickels, opening them tomorrow though. It is the reverse, looks good enough to have a date too!

SWEET~~~

I've never had an ender! Hope It's a Mint Mark unit.

I dont understand how you guys get all of these buffaloes... D:

No buffalos for me yet, either! I did get a "V" once though!

I used to get 1-2 Buffaloes per box, but it's been six boxes since my last one.

lol unbelievable to get a v before a buffalo?

It's in horrible shape with no date but the "v" stands out well on the back.

I have only found war nickels, and 1 1905 V-Nickel in my third EVER box. Still no buffalo's either, but I'm much happier with the V nickel. Those are hard to come by these days, probably more buffalo's around than V-Nickels. After 100 years, who knows what people have carried it in their pockets at one point...

Just got my first V nickel this weekend (1912, maybe G-6 condition).
