  • I love treasure hunting and I love it even more when I can do it from the comfort of my own home. In this case, we are searching through a pile of old worn out buffalo nickels to see if we can find any key dates worth money. How will we do this? We will apply a special acid called Nic-a-Date that will reveal the date like magic. Want to learn how and see the rare coins I found! Watch the video!

    A while back I bought 50 dateless buffalo nickels on Ebay for less than $15. I did find many 1916-1919 dates and a 1913 Type 2 reverse. The 1918 D / 7 error is sought after as well.

    Did that a lot when I was a kid ( long ago , nicadate is nothing new ) but then I didn't like the look of the coin. I even tried to do the whole surfaces of the coins a few times but they came out all streaked.

    I got a B-Nickel from my great-grandfather as an inheritance. It's not a no-date but it's so worn I thought it was a 1915 for forever. Recently, I got a 30x electronic microscope and found it's actually a 1916. But, I also figured out it's an S-mint. Helpful video for the other nickels I got.

    It doesn't seem like there is much to be lost in damaging a coin that's already so far gone. I have a painful story I'll eventually get into sharing on the discord about digging at a coin with a metal fork just so I could identify it. Did I wreck it pretty bad? yup. Did I identify it? Indeed I did! Do I regret it? Not particularly... it really wasn't much more collectible before than it is now.

    Looks like magic to me, if you need to add an acid to see when they are minted, this is not good for the metal.
    I collect only Unc and XF, so without a date a coin is not interresting.
    I like the details.

    Only nic-a-date the ones with mintmarks on them (the varieties are incredibly hard to find) Really the only one you should be going after is the 1913s type 2. The nic-a-dated ones sell for $100. The 1913d type 2 and other dates are not worth it as they sell for below $10.

      The hunt for me is what makes the excitement stay fresh. After years of collecting, a roll of unsearched coins is so full of possibilities it’s wonderful. It’s especially fantastic when you got a roll of stuff you got from a bank or that you picked up at a yard sale or an auction for cheap and you find a cool variety or error or great coin to fill an album spot. One of the greatest feelings.
