And I decided to take a look at some of my buffalos to see if I had any of the 2 feather buffalo nickel varieties. Anyhow, I found one, and its this 1928S 2 1/2 feather type. So I figured Id post pictures of my find. Thanks GDJMSP for your post, I would have never known that this variety existed. http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/d...s25feather.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/d...hercloseup.jpg   01-01-2008, 07:01 PM   #2 (permalink) GDJMSP Numismatist     Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: PA Posts: 23,515 You're welcome There's a lot in that section of Coin Talk that can be learned if you only choose to use and explore it __________________ knowledge ..... share it   01-01-2008, 07:37 PM   #3 (permalink) Phoenix21 *The King Of Jokes*     Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: PA Posts: 8,846 My Mood: Nice find man! I'll have to go check that out myself, must have missed it. Never know what could be hiding in your collection, waiting to be discovered.

For the hardcore nickel specialist, that's a keeper. But for the average collector it's not that significant. But at least it's a naked eye variety. Not like the Lincolns with extra knees, wavy steps, etc. It's more like a 1922 Plain without the strong reverse, nice but not the real thing. __________________ ANA Member APS Member ARA Member There are 10 types of people: those that understand binary, and those that don't.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
