    I will never get my inventory finished if I keep finding coins I want to show everyone! here is a 1913-S Buffalo 5 cent that had a die clash occur that put much of "PLURIBUS" and top part of "UNUM" on the obverse under the chin.

    Here is a close up with the red arrows pointing ( from rt. to left) to R,I,B remember it is reversed., the violet points to the U.N.

    Jim, thanks for sharing your find. Guess I'll have to go back and look at my Buffalo nickles again.

    Great picture, unfortunately, the die clash is very common, even visible on dateless coins.
