Congrats! I got my first by someone paying with change for something. Can't wait to find one though.

It had some red stains over the Indian head so I soaked it in Worcestershire sauce as someone said in another post. I was dumbfounded by the results.

Thanks for the comment!

Default Worcestershire sauce
I would have thought that worcestershire sauce would be best on a buffalo steak.

Looks great!!

I found a 1937 Buff Nickel last week... soaked it in some warm soapy water and cleaned it up. Still not as clean as I'd like, but it doesn't look half bad for a coin that's 73 years old.

Nice find!!
