yes a small die clash to my eyes

 

Is it recessed or raised, and does it match up with any part of the reverse design?

Hi,

It raised... maybe buffalo leg at back but i'm not sure.

THank you!

I'm thinking "die gouge". A clash mark that deep should show some other design elements...I would think.

 

Looks to be the result of a clashed die. This is opposite E PLURIBUS UNUM and it is not uncommon to find traces of the motto in front of the Native American's face almost in the form of a mask.

 

The motto would be under his chin. However, it could be a die clash with the raised bone half way up the back leg. That would be the right size and placement.

 

Yes, you are correct. I had written the wrong part of the clash.

 

Hi,

I don't know if it is common but look to have something in the neck too :







Thank you!

Hi,

On back, you can see something under UNUM and probably between back legs :



Thank you!

I'm not an error guy but it seems to me the characteristics of such would manifest on a coin

Hi,

As i read, seem to be "two feathers variety (FS...)". It is an interesting coin in good condition.

Thank you!
