Thanks for bringing this post back to life. I've actually had one of the D mint coins with another die crack a little further down the feather....
According to Ron Pope's book "Buffalo Nickels - The Abraded Die Varieties", which has a whole section on the 14/13 's, this coin I believe is die...
[ATTACH][ATTACH]This has been my favorite to cherrypick. I've found about 20 or so of them so far. [IMG]
I've seen a few misplaced mint marks before, and a lot of them wind up being in the date. Is there something going on with the first 4? Or am I...
The loop looks like a gouge in to the coin, where something sharp has struck it. Nice die crack though.
At first glance the "IN" in the picture from coppercoins looks like MD, but if you look at the "N" especially all of the points of both N's are...
The die dot you're referring to, may only be on the later die state coins. -Something that developed during the life of the die. -Your coin may be...
Did you get a chance to check out "coppercoins.com"??? -[ATTACH]Or is that where you got your info to start with? That site is very helpful, and...
Well I was going to say no at first, but after looking at "coppercoins.com" I'm not so sure now. Can you get a picture of "IN"??? -I think that's...
Nickels are not plated. This coin was probably found laying on the ground. My kids find coins like this on the playground (dirt playground) at...
You should have taken the 3M -then you could have bought 300,000 more and sold them for 900,000,000 - and then you could have bought 900,000 more...
It would fit right in with my 2021-Z Washington Buffalo quarter penny half dime that the Smithsonian keeps calling me about. They would be a great...
I guess you're right. If you've seen a "1909-D indian wheat cent" it would have to be the only one. So if you've seen it -you have seen them all....
Please post a picture of this one.
Yes your coin is unique in that it is the only one exactly like it, but "every coin" is unique in that respect. Double denominations are far from...
BTW the 2 legged buffalo just walks upright. -He's just a little more civilized than the rest I guess.
The pictures and words were straight out of Ron Pope's book "The Abraded Die Varieties". . I wish I did own the coin though. Have you heard of...
Everyone keeps referring to the "D", but clearly the "V" and the "B" are doubled also. The top picture in the 13th reply shows this doubling best....
It's a double die VDB. I've seen this on a few of the 1969 S cents.
VERY VERY NICE!!! I've got an older "Eagle Reverse" one with some of the clad missing, but it doesn't look very nice.
