[QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 3255894, member: 44615"]I know you are new to collecting so I want to guide you a bit ;) Whenever you think you have found a coin that was stamped over with another coin you should also show both sides and the edge. There can be clues there also to determine if this is true or not. In this case I find it highly impossible to have a Indian Head Buffalo Nickel overstruck with a Jefferson Nickel since the last time the Buffalo series were struck was in 1938. It can't be a transitional error, meaning leftover planchets left over from the previous year then struck on the new current year because the Jefferson would have to be a 1939.. As stated, I think what you are seeing is Pareidolia. But.. It can't be impossible since there are a few Mint Employee assisted struck coins where other years or even other foreign coins are struck on newer minted coins by Probably tossing them into the Blank bin. Such as a US Quarter struck on a Canadian Quarter. How's that for a tactical answer! :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]
