<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 8283735, member: 84179&quot;]You got lucky. The Type with the buffalo on a mound was only minted in 1913.&nbsp; Everything else from some 1913 through 1938 is the type 2 reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Recommendation:&nbsp; buy and read a copy of A Guide Book of United States Coins, commonly referred to as the redbook.&nbsp; It&#039;s primarily an annual retail pricing guide, but it&#039;s filled with all kinds of other info, like basic grading, mint mark locations, mintages, weights, short history, on just about all US and colonial issues, proof sets, etc.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s the kind of book where you can open to any random page, spend 5 min, and you&#039;ll learn something (note: it has almost nothing about errors). I would bet that just about every experienced collector on this site, that started collecting US coins, had one and used it when they were starting..it will be the best $15 you&#039;ll ever spend on the hobby</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1463261[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
