BoredHousewife New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 9:20 pm Sorting through and rolling our spare change to bring to the bank and I like to sometimes go through them to see if I happen to have any special coins that are known to have error's, etc. Fortunate enough to see that I do have a 2005 D Buffalo nickel and it doesn't look like it is speared but it actually looks like it is peeing. Here are the photos I took when trying to look closer at it through my hobby USB Microscope. Does this look like a wear mark or more of an error? Buffalo's thingy as a reference point to zoom in. I can take more pictures if it will help anyone answer this question. I am very novice to this type of thing and still am having a hard time telling the difference between an error or just normal circulation signs. I thought I should look closer into it because it is around the same location as the "speared buffalo" nickel but it only showed up on this one, in this location.

BoredHousewife New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 9:49 pm I think that it is hilarious if anything. My husband was wondering what the heck I was doing.. Bottom line, would it be worth it to get this further looked at? Report this Post to the Staff

BoredHousewife New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 02/15/2022 12:23 am Well this is exciting that this is my first dip into actually investigating a coin further like I actually might have something that is actually rare! Will I need to get this inspected if I am thinking about selling it? I was thinking of polite ways to name this particular coin.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19306 Posts	Posted 02/15/2022 07:30 am Given the images posted, The features in question appear to be circulation dings/hits. Are the features fully raised, or are they incuse with some raised edges? Report this Post to the Staff
