    Does anyone know if these are the ONLY coins that have the "INCUSED" date on them. Quite a lot was made at the time, about the engraver using this type of dating??

    No, the 1984 olympic dollar also has an incused date and the 1492 on the 1992 Columbus dollar is incuse

    I stand corrected. Must be they are the only ones with the incuse mint mark then. I know they were a first for one of them.

    I'll give you first coin with an incused mintmark, but all the president dollars and the native american dollars have incused mintmarks too. Incused dates too.

    I bought one a while back... 2001-D NGC MS69 Silver Buffalo.
    I was put in a situation to where I had to sell it, and I did. (I lost money on it, as I bought HIGH and sold LOW)
    I hope to get a set of MS and PF very soon, after I cross off PF64-65 Indian Cent and get some MS65/66 Morgans off of my wish list...(Well it is more of a "To-Do" List!) :D

    Wait around long enough and the price on these will come down even more.....demand drives the premium. 500,000 is a lot o' coins. It is by no means a rare issue.

    There was much screaming and gnashing of teeth in the congress, to allow legislation for another 500,000 coins!! The rationale for it was that more money could be raised for the Indian Bureau or whatever!! It never made it or these sets of coins would be even less rarer than ever!! (Custer was writhing in his grave already!!)

    If you check out the "Birthplace" #1 Lincoln penny, it has E Pluribus Unum and 1809 incused on the reverse under the Log Cabin!

    I have 3 two graded a MS-70 and a PR-70 and one MS still in the set from the mint. Who could not love a classic design as the Buffalo nickel and the 2001 buffalo comm. I purchased all the gold buffalos too... well the first 2 proofs and then I screwed up... I ordered both the 4 coin sets in both Proof and MS kept the MS set and returned the proof set! DUH! what was I thinking? I only wish that this country would go back to classic designs like this coin and the buffalo nickel. This coin to me is like a 58 or 63 Vet you know your going to turn your head when you see one of these great classic go by.........

    I wish I had bought a 1962 or 1963 split window Stingray, but could not, Later, 1965 SS Chevell, 327/350, 4 speed, 336 positive traction, heavy duty suspension, sliver mist blue/black inter. It would go past 120mph, only cost $2100.00 new then. :)-O)
