<p>[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 5141334, member: 19250"]So you can see that the 14 s is indeed a coin that can be a challange. The 1914 date hammered,Liberty soft strike, the reverse hammereed. The obv.

[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 5141334, member: 19250"]So you can see that the 14 s is indeed a coin that can be a challange. The 1914 date hammered,Liberty soft strike, the reverse hammereed. The obv.

Just another reason if your going to collect MS Buffalos you need to buy the book....books....its a fantistic series that was the perfect for a National proud of its native Americans and a national symbol. I believe it was Ben Franklin who wanted the Turkey not the eagel to be the national symbol. I personally like the buffalo.....they are a beautiful sight in the wild. One other point look at the lower jaw and the neck area...notice how full the neck is as well the lower jaw line. Unlike the 1919 this die wasn't reworked and details removed. The 1919 if you recall had a floating jaw from the refacing the die to remove the EPU clash.[/QUOTE]
