Figured this suiting given my mild obsession with Buffs.

This invaluable book came up in a recent topic and thought it would make a great giveaway so I picked up a signed copy from Ron. For those that are not familiar with Ron's publishing's, they're filled with decades of knowledge. Definitely a must have.

Giveaway is simple. You must have 50 posts to participate. Reply to this post and in 7 days I will throw all the names in a random name drawing generator to determine the winner.

I really enjoy searching Buffalo nickels for varieties. I've gone through hundreds, maybe thousands at this point. But I usually focus on doubled dies and repunched mintmarks. I've picked out maybe three two-feathers, but comparing that to the couple dozen DDs and RPMs I've got, I can't help but feel I've probably missed some of the abraded varieties. I could probably use some educating on those!

Thanks for the giveaway!

I have a digital verison of either that book or a similar type on all the buff varieties. Now I just need to be able to go back to a LCS and buy a bulk lot of culls.

Great giveaway idea! I recently became interested in the two-feather Buffs. Would enjoy the read and education. Please include me and thank you. Very generous.

Must have missed this earlier! I haven't owned this book before, but seen it around. Seems like a good read for whomever the winner is.
