Hi, I just was curious to find out if I had found a no F variety: # B376. I just matched this coin up to a similar looking one on the Internet and wanted to confirm that its classification is correct. I also have a few additional questions: a) What other years/mints in the Buffalo nickels do no F varieties command a respectable premium? b) If this coin does turn out to be a # B376, what are we looking at in terms of value? c) Finally, please also grade this coin. Thanks, mdpmedia    |

I have never really given them much thought, just another case of worn out and overpolished dies. However, there is at least enough interest in them to warrant a CPG listing.

Hi Mdpmedia, I haven't found too much information in the way of values for the "No F" but Ron Pope's Abraded Die Varieties has a section (Section F) on which year/mints have been found, he lists 20 of them with. There are some prices but it is from 2016 so not sure how representative they are for today but maybe a place to start. Here is a link that should open to that section https://archive.org/details/buffalo...n71/mode/2upThe different years and mints with the "No F" have it missing to various degrees much like the two feather abraded dies, with some having no trace. |

Those photos taken of the same coin were done a decade ago using a USB camera; the details of the scratch and patina overall are not that accurate. I used an iPhone to take these new shots which portray a more accurate presentation of the same coin. I'll post these new shots in the grading forum to get opinions.   |

I did not post this close-up of the no-F area in the grading forum because it's related to the variety issue:  |
