Buffalo Nickel Date? [solved]

Hello - I have a buffalo Nickel and i know they were minted 1913-1938 but is there a way to tell without being able to see the date? I know there was something about number legs and if it was on a hill or raised edges. Thoughts ?

Sorry but we will not be able to get a date off your coin.

The raised ground is when the buffalo is not standing on a line. That is only for some 1913 Type 1

the legs is a 3 leg buffalo of 1937

If you have a bunch of these, you can try using Nic-A-Date on them:

​doesn't Nic A date damage the coin where it was placed?

That's what i thought too. i tried a vinegar solution on my last one and it came out way too pitted. i might just leave this one with the "ive been in the ground for 100 years" look.

Good idea looks cool

​Do we need to worry about damaging this one? It's pretty well gone.
