Your method that I tried really worked. My grandmother used to be a coin collector through her child time. I was looking through her 55 year old collection and found a dateless buffalo nickel. I tried to think of anything I’d imagine. I came up with a specialized acid treatment, but later realized that it may destroy the value of those rare coins. So, I found this video, and followed every direction, and got 1915! There was no mint mark, so it was Philadelphia minted. I priced it to be $5! Those dateless buffalo nickels are believed to be at least 90-95 years of age at the youngest and 100-110 years at the most.
All 'Buffalo Nickels' were minted from 1913 - 1938. The Bison on Mound reverse was used only for part of 1913, so they are now 109 years old. The remainder (with Bison on Plain) are between 84 and 109 years old at this time.
I have an undated buffalo nickel but the buffalo side has a black substance on part of the buffalo. It might be paint. Will the peroxide-white vinegar solution take that off? What do you recommend?
Your last buffalo nickel revealed date was 1928. At least that's what I saw. Thank you for this video and your help! If I do this procedure to reveal the dates, does that mean I cannot sell the nichols?
If you clean coins, you do it at your own risk. Serious coin collectors know cleaned coins when they see them and value those types of coins much less.
Mine have date like you show and have letter said D 1937 but four legs . And we dig it when we’re planting trees . It’s buried so deep I’m going to sale it . Thank you
I havent tried them with this technique. I would imagine it would work well but be careful! Ive heard this devalues your nickels. Cant remember where I heard that. LOL
Hard to destroy value if you don’t know what it is you will end up giving it away or just throwing it into a pile of other coins. Nice tip, I would use it on a detected find that I want to know the date on. If I have a $100 coin and I destroy the value I don’t care as I wasn’t selling it any way. $1000 bucks then I would regret it😁
That is a cool trick. I have 2 or 3 with no dates. But don't want to clean them or ruin the value of the of Nickel that mite not be worth much form the gate. But thx for the tip.
Yes and no, if it is a common date then it means nothing just worth about the same as a date less but if it is a rare date such as 1913 S then it will increase the value.
Do You have an E mail address that I can contact you? My 1913 S nickel was brown but I could see the date quite well. After using your method I noticed 2 things: 1. the nickel was very dull to look at and 2. the date on the nickel was harder to read. Any suggestion on how I can restore and improve the date and bring some shine to It?
I dont believe that this technique would work and I strongly would advise against trying it. An SLQ has significantly higher value, even with no date, compared to a dateless buff. I have plans for future vids on cleaning silver coins so maybe that would help you later on. Stay tuned...
I have a Buffalo nickel that looks like it has been shot and bent but upon further examination I can see several and I mean several stamps where it has been stamped several times how do I get someone to look at it and tell me what I have
I really hope no one does this with any really rare coins. Its like cutting the edges off of old baseball cards to make them straight just don’t do it.

@@5280Adventures IKR! Bc of it, I’d credit this video for such a truly effective method

Very cool history about the buffalo and on the last one I thought I could see a 4 for the last number. Thanks for sharing. 😎👍👍
Awesome. I will go back and check that one again
Great video! Thanks for the tip, and I love the information about the buffalo nickels
The mint recessed five cents recognizing that it wore off fast, why in the world didn't they recess the date too at the same time??
Good Video on that technique I have done that with shield nickels too with fair results
I would imagine similar results with the V nickel. Thanks for watching.
This works on silver coins too. I soaked some slick silvers I had and discovered that one of them was a 1733 pistareen! Thanks for sharing this.
Some nice finds well done
Thank you Tony, that's a cool little trick!
What u mean trick silly get over here so
What r u talking n about blanket n pillow still there I need u to y come to motel 6 he said ok on toilet
Ferric chloride also works.
That blue color reminds me of copper sulfate.
Perhaps copper being dissolved out of the .75 copper, .25 nickel alloy of the Five Cent 'Nickel'?
Liked the history on the coin also, thanks
Thank you so much. Much appreciated.
Excellent information. I definitely will try this on a couple slick ones. Thanks for sharing, GL, HH and take care.
You’re welcome. I hope it works out for ya.
I have a couple of really bad dateless Buffy coins in my "coin boneyard" that are perfect for this! Thanks for sharing!
Very cool, I have to try this. I only have 2 Indian nickels neither has readable date. Very useful info thanks for sharing. 😀♥️👍
+JohnChum Adventures Yes sir!

Thank you for the history and more important the cleaning tutorial
I hope you enjoyed it! LOL

Excellent video, I enjoyed this one. Ever tried this on the reddish colored nickels we get out of the ground?
I havent tried them with this technique. I would imagine it would work well but be careful! Ive heard this devalues your nickels. Cant remember where I heard that. LOL
Awesome you... God Bless You ❤😊
Do not clean your coins! Unless they are a dateless Buff with a Mint Mark LOL! Interesting stuff Tony good job! Dig On!
Agreed Chad! Thanks for watching buddy
Coins for Amateurs that’s the key. I’d only bother with S mint marks LOL
I have a box full i hope i learn how to find the dates

good technique. I knew only the one which uses the product Nic-A-Date.
Also a product to find the date but does damage the coin. Be careful!
I'm pretty sure that last nickel is a 1919. Thanks for making this video!
I think it is a 1933.
Edit: just realized that they only made pennies and half dollars in 1933. Now I think it might be a 1918.
Im almost certain its 1916
ya it looks like a 19 to me
Very cool tip I'll giver a shot.👍
+martyisnuts aboutdiggin Worth a try right? Enjoy Marty. Thanks for checking this out.
That is a cool trick. I have 2 or 3 with no dates. But don't want to clean them or ruin the value of the of Nickel that mite not be worth much form the gate. But thx for the tip.
That coin date acid destroys all value. I suppose it’s ok if a person is curious as to what the date is?
Yes and no, if it is a common date then it means nothing just worth about the same as a date less but if it is a rare date such as 1913 S then it will increase the value.
I need to try this Tony on the couple Buffalo Nicks I got the other day
Sweet! I hope you can see something on them
I have this made 1937 with buffalo in great condition. Where can I do to appraised or sale it
Pls let me know wer u can take them
Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely. Thanks for watching!
I have a 1925 buffalo nickel. How much is the worth?
The 1916 are worth money but I don’t think as much now lol but at least you can see the date
I have a slick one I'll try, thanks.
Cool Joe. Thanks for watching
Nice technique as an alternative to Nic-A-Date which also will devalue the coin as you know. Cool vid. Thanks
Exactly. I really tried to make that point. THIS WILL DEVALUE YOUR NICKELS! LOL
5280 Adventures what did you say? 👂 LOL You made the point quite well. Excellent video. I can’t wait to make some of that “blue water” 😂
+Coin Sense And Nonsense Yeah someone already said they enjoyed the blue kool aid product I created as well! LOL
Hello 5 búfalo año 1928 la tengo santo Domingo
Heck I am 52 I remember getting them in change. Not a lot but a few times.

How come mine have long hair and buffalo on the other side 1937 with letter D it’s in excellent condition .
Any update on the 1916 coin?
Wow it WORKS!
That was awesome !
I would like to know how much value this coin and it is in good condition
I have a coin that looks exactly like coin#2!! 1924!!!! I did see a 4!!
@5:37 I see 1919 on the last nickel.
Cool technique.
I think you figured that one out
Never seen that😁 I really like the refreshing blue Kool aid by product💀
Yummy! LOL
I have one of the. Nickel

Hi...i have a coin of a buffalo head nickel but without date..
Nice video and beautiful coin...Best regards:)

Forbidden Kool Aid
4th one was a 1919
Need a jewelers loop.
I have this coin in my posession... i want sell it, may i ask, do you have buyer of this buffalo nickel? thank you.
I cant say that Im much into buying coins as I prefer to find them by metal detecting but thank you for the offer.
@@5280Adventures Ok, thank you for the reply really appreciate. Good luck.
How much u buy
Last coin is 1919 as well
1928 buffalo nickel
The thing is, I need to know what the date is to know if it is valuable!
I have a 1936 Buffalo nickel do you know if it's worth anything
I would check online or ebay to get a ballpark estimate of its value.
Have a standing liberty quarter no date visible.
Y'all think it would work on it?
I dont believe that this technique would work and I strongly would advise against trying it. An SLQ has significantly higher value, even with no date, compared to a dateless buff. I have plans for future vids on cleaning silver coins so maybe that would help you later on. Stay tuned...
I used the product called just for nickels. I used it, and it revealed 1916 on my Buffalo nickel.
I have a Buffalo nickel that looks like it has been shot and bent but upon further examination I can see several and I mean several stamps where it has been stamped several times how do I get someone to look at it and tell me what I have
Sounds interesting. Can you send me a pic to the email on my ABOUT tab of my channel? Thank you Ricky
How much would a 1935 buffalo nickel be worth Indian on the front a big buffalo on the back a 1935

5280❤

Yes, like crushing a good car
Destroys all of the value better off keeping the buffalo nickel how it is
