I bid on these two items from The Auction Block in Detroit! I really adore buffalo in general, partially because they're huge and said to be non-existant now (bison- really?) but also because my pet guinea pig looks like one! Plus, I have only child syndrome (i have brothers) and want things that are rare so that others can't! But these cards, too, a whole book WITH page protectors for cheap! This place is cool because people either don't know what they have or don't care so it all goes for $5 starting, no matter what it is! I scored some cool Barbie ornaments, too for $10 for 11!
Anyone know if the coin is worth more than 40 cents?
The 2005 Jefferson nickel with the Buffalo was a circulating commemorative nickel. They are part of the "Westward Journey" nickel series.With a mintage of 448,320,000 being minted at the Philadelphia mint and 487,680,000 minted at the Denver mint, the coin is far from scarce. (Yes, those figures are in the millions) It does however commemorate an important event in American history. - A bison is also called a Buffalo and although almost hunted to extinction, the prairies of middle America are full of them.
