That's interesting, From what I read they new fully what they were doing.
The link cant be found
That is damage to the field. It isn't part of the six. Your first pic shows another gouge in the field, the displaced material has been almost...
The Foreign material fell onto the planchet. then was struck, It may have shown on the 7, but, years of circulation has worn it away.
In this instance the rim burr, or foreign material was retained. It is stuck to the coin. I am no expert, did you read the link I sent??
It could be a rim burr, and the struck through was retained. http://www.error-ref.com/struck-through_metal_dust__shavings/
What grade do you consider it?
I found one from the Dark Side, it still fits the topic. http://www.forumancientcoins.com/numiswiki/view.asp?key=Die%20axis Doug's got it right.
Cant tell from the photo if it gets fs.. but it would need the FS designation to be worth sending it, 64FS 650 64+FS 875 65FS 1250 (auction)
The mm took a hit, PMD,
Didn't look for that but I see it now.
NGC is always hard on Buffaloes, My opinion they didn't like the deep planchet mark or the die crack from rim to hair and then from nose to rim....
If you like Slabs, @paddyman98 would know the value
All right Tim, send it in. We'll wait for your return. By the way it is a CAM a worn die and corroded.:facepalm:
That's peeertty! Nice Buffalo.
Nolan did you check it against, this one? http://varietyvista.com/01a LC Doubled Dies Vol 1/1943PDDO001.htm
I didn't realize that it would be a 3rd or 4th tier slab, They are usually considerably higher in grade than reality. Upon checking final auction...
Nice DDO Rick!
I agree its a strike through. I don't see any flaking of metal
Cool find. I do believe this one is the same as yours. http://cuds-on-coins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_7441-copy.jpg
