Browsing through my circulated Buffalo nickels, and came across this one with PLURIBUS upside down and backwards (incused) under the Indian's chin.
I've never really seen a clashed-die coin, so.....is this one, or do y'all think it's post mint damage?

I'm no expert, but do have a few Aussie die clash coins & it certainly appears as though this is a US example of one.

It is a clashed die. They are common on Buffalo nickels.

Yeaqh Thingee, this is a first for me, too. And, as you said - no matter how many there are out there floating around, it's still cool. Amazing what you can find just by taking the time to study your coins a little, huh?
