    First Buffalo Nickel

    I went out for a fairly short hunt with flysar to a local state park. I had just starting sweeping the area when I got my first hit and out popped a 1937 Buffalo nickel. I've gotten older coins, but never a Buffalo. After that great start it was all modern.

    Grats. T'was like that for some coins for me. I could find some late 1800s, and then 1700s coins... and nothing in between for some reason. I still managed a buff before a V nickel, tho.
    Future goals: Capped bust coin, Flowing hair LC, Classic head LC, VT copper, MA copper, Pistareen, Two-cent pc, SLQ, GW inaugural button, Excelsior button, Civil war token, and a gold ring.
