I did not know I have die clash Buffalo nickels. Here is one of them. *Photo done with phone. Does not do justice to coin.   |

P.S. The reverse of my Buffalo nickel is the same color as the obverse. My lighting changed. The coin is very clean with a very silver tone.  |

And...I see some clashing under his chin, but let someone else verify that.

Very nice 1914! My first thought after looking up close, was " that's his neck!", it seems connected to chin, no nicking into like clash or scratch. Could this be a very sharp area of a new die? Just looks like it should be there?   Edited by Crazyb0

That area below the chin is especially interesting. Have you been able to match the reverse clash on the obverse?

To me the clashing looks like part of the bisons back.

No I haven't matched the reverse. But I can tell I definitely need to get my photo gear set up  Thank you for your opinions |

The clash under the chin is from E PLURIBUS UNUM. I would call that one a moderate clash, they can be much stronger.

Thank you biokemist6 for clarifying the clash mark.
Phone photos leave much to be desired.

It's also called a chin whisker variety and not really that uncommon on early date buffs along with other clashes
