Buffalo nickels


Recommended Posts

The Buffalo nickel was minted from 1913 to 1938.

In this podcast, you'll learn:

Why the Hobbs Manufacturing Company caused a one-year delay in the release of the coin.

Why problems with the coin design caused it to be changed midway through the first year of its issue.

What a mint employee named Mr. Young did that caused some Buffalo nickels to be worth thousands of dollars today.

Why the identity of the Indian, and the identity of the buffalo (which isn't a buffalo) are both still somewhat of a mystery today.
