Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 01/21/2019 8:09 pm @Jckeur5151, first welcome to CCF. Second, while I agree that better pics could help, what I see so far are a couple of parallel scratches between the U and R. There is also an area of underlying flattening that has obscured parts of this legend.

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3646 Posts	Posted 01/26/2019 1:47 pm You have two different things going on. There is circulation damage in the form of a vertical hit on EPU. There is also a die clash that is visible on the obverse and reverse. Here are the details of the affected areas of your coin: Jason Cuvelier's Buffalo Nickel Overlay on maddieclashes.com shows how your coin has the "fangs" below the Indian's chin and the horizontal blob through UNUM. Die clashes are extremely common in the Buffalo nickel series, especially on high mintage dates like 1923, and don't seem to bring any extra premium. They are interesting, though.
