Best Answer

Along the pioneer trail, Mormon pioneers would communicate by leaving notes to passengers behind them written on buffalo skulls. The skulls would then be placed on the side of the trail so that those traveling along the trail would see them. These notes could vary from notifications of where to obtain food and water to messages to individuals.

Where is the tip of the buffalo's horn on a 1935 buffalo nickel?

The horn tip is in the same place on the buffalo's head on all buffalo nickels, almost directly above its eye, where the horn would protrude from the animal's skull in real life. Unfortunately design problem caused the horn to wear off rather quickly so most circulated buffalo nickels show at most a partial horn. If all of your buffalo nickels are too worn to see the horn easily, you can use any search engine to look for images of unworn coins. E.g. search for "buffalo nickel pictures" or "buffalo nickel images".
