Current Goal

The goal of "Big Chief Buffalo Nickel" is mainly just to travel the world.  Feel free take photos--be creative!  :-)

(I have a couple of other "big money" trackables out there--if this one happens to be in the vicinity of any of the others, it would be great to have their photo taken together!):

TB8JH0J - "Little Ole Dime"
TB6BY76 - "Penny Lane"
TB94FZF - "Pennies from Heaven"
TB6BTPZ - "Put Another Dime in the Jukebox, Baby!"
TB96FZA - "Put Another Nickel In"
TB9BF14 - "Ben"
TB9BDA8 - "A Penny for Your Thoughts"

(Be sure to hide the tracking code when taking any pics with the trackable).

​(Also, please don't "collect" this trackable, as that will take it out of circulation and spoil the fun.  PLEASE do not take this travel bug unless you'll faithfully log it and take it to another cache.  I can't tell you how many trackables I've released which have gone missing or stagnant, often after just being in one cache.  Please respect the purpose of travel bugs / trackables.  Thank you).

About This Item

Big Chief Buffalo Nickel

Continuing my theme of naming most of my trackables after songs, "Big Chief Buffalo Nickel" (aka "Desert Blues") is a song written by Charlie Dore and Julian Nicholas Littman.  One of the earliest versions seems to be from 1929, in which it was recorded by Jimmie Rodgers, known as the "Father of Country Music."  In years following, the song has been covered by many other performers including Ricky Nelson, Leon Redbone, and Steve Forbert.
