Hi, I just read one of GDJMSPs posts about nickel varieties. 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/dd202/DJP7x0s/28s25feather.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd202/DJP7x0s/28S25feathercloseup.jpg
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
Nice find man! :thumb: 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. :thumb: Phoenix
what i like to do is look at all my coins date and mintmarks with my microscope. i have found a few RPMs this way.
IMO this is an example of overkill in looking for errors/varieties. 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.
