1918 Buff

I acid restored this one. Anyone see a 7 under the 8?

Thanks,

Not I, the shaft of the 7 should give a almost flat edge on the inside of the loops towards the middle of the loop, making the inside of each loop almost a semicircle.

There were some threads on coincommunity's forum on the markers to tell if you had one without the date view. You might search there.

Thanks, Jim. Will do.

 

This one doesn't have a 7 visible. Also, it is the 1918/1917 D that is known. I am not aware of such a die variety on a P mint five-cent coin.

Thanks,
Bill

 

Bill, thanks. I didn't realize it was only the D mint.

 

Here is an image of the 1918/7-D Nickel.
