What's Wrong With This Buffalo Nickel?

Have you done business with this dealer before? Just because it's not visible to his naked eye under his lighting conditions doesn't mean it won't be visible to your naked eye and your lighting conditions. Different light can change everything real quick. But if this is dealer you know and trust maybe it'll be alright.

My friend if this coin is what he says is just a mark like I said since I collect nickels then it probaly is If I were you I would just buy and stop looking and stop stressing yourself


Its not good for you first you will be like this and then you are going to get so stressed you will be like this so please just buy it because personaly It is a beautiful coin and just dont leave it like that all lonesome thats why I have my own thread look for it because coins have feelings too you know

Well Buffaloboy, I'm going to go by the advice of longnine, just 'coz its not visible to him doesn't mean it won't be visible to me and I don't know the dealer, its an ebay dealer.

If you are so interested in it you can buy it, heres the item# 8373768851

Let us know what you think when it arrives:)

forgot faces

To tell you the trtuh I dont have 50 bucks so of course I cant buy it

It looks like maybe a lamination. There seems to be the same thing at the top of the neck, directly above the date.

I'm afraid there's no real answer for that. Some collectors, who know that it's a lamination might like it, others might not and others might not know what it is and shy away from it. Laminations are a distraction, as are a lot of errors. You have to like them to want them on a coin. And even then you don't have to have expensive or high grade coins to collect errors. If I liked laminations I really wouldn't see the need to pay a premium for a high grade coin when I can get the same thing on a circulated coin. But that's just me.

Don't give up on looking for the Buffalo nickel that *you like.*
You may have to pay more than you want for it, especially for a buffalo--It's a popular coin. Paying more is just a temporary annoyance. Buying a coin that has something that bothers you and keeps you looking at over and over is pure torture.
