I'm 21 years old and have been collecting stamps and coins since I was about 4 years old. By the way, my name is Ryan. I just found this site last night doing some research on a few of my prized pieces but I noticed that you were looking to buy a 1970 D Mint Type M reverse quarter and That just had to be one of the things that i happened to take a look at becuz it didnt look like a normal quarter, so i had that instinct and sure enough its one, I also have 1 more 1970 and a 1969 all type M. My main collection is put away but heres a few things that I currently have. And NOT everything is for sale, Only doubles, I have a 1913 Buffalo Nickel, not in good shape tho, all the 1913s's dont have dates and they are all warn off but, Its the Type 2 because when Fraiser created the 2nd one he but the "buffalo" on flat ground and it actuallly wasnt a buffallo, he changed it to a bison, and what ppl dont know is that the main difference between type 1 and 2 is that the type one nickel actually only had three legs on the buffalo, however there is no date on mine I luckily have the type 2 Bison with 4 legs and I, 100% sure it is an offical 1913 bcuz Fraiser who made them changed the size of the nose on the indian and made the "FIVE CENTS" bigger and the Liberty part is sloppy. But the way u kno is if the animal on the reverse side has 3 or 4 legs and if he is standing on flat ground or a hill. ok lemme get to the good stuff. I have a 1967 C mint and I believe it is a M type and the same but its a 1969 and i have the 1970 too, but the 69 and the 70 are D mints. Ik they are real bcuz they stick out meaning the eagle and Washington's face protrudes out more than a normal quarter and the give away is the NO ARROW HEADS ON THE ARROWS they look like the eagles have their claws wrapped around logs, well sort of logs but not really they are more like a bundle of sticks which are supposed to be the arrows but with no arrow heads what so ever. Also, i have this really rare coin that i cant find any info on and what i did find is that it is rare. it is a 1740 sealed never opened about an inch in diameter all the way around. You can tell it wasnt struck, what i found out is that it is an offical silver Spanish Coin. Pure Silver. Oh and by the way, the, "buffalo" knickel i have from 1913 is a a rarer (not that rare) S-San Francisco Mint which the didnt make that many! But heres the story on the silver Spanish Coin. Its too long to type so im copying and pasting it. </p><p><br /></p><p>In 1887, A local citizen, Mrs. Tassie Wilson, went to the territorial capital for a visit.
