Ok had my 3 cups coffee. 2- 1920 no mint mark Buffalo nickels with different letter design and/or sizes. Is she just slap wore out?

First one. cud(?). The first A and the C in America looks smaller. The last A in America looks like it's on top of something. The I in PLURIBUS.

Looks pretty normal to me, possibly buried at some point. Please try to post full-size pics of both the obverse and reverse of your coins.

No errors here. Just heavily circulated Buffalo nickels.

The marks under the Indian's chin and through E PLURIBUS UNUM are from a die clash. (The bottom of the chin and area below that and EPU are directly opposite each other.) These clashes are extremely common throughout the Buffalo series, and do not command any premium.

Beyond that, I agree with the others who have already replied. It is a common date heavily circulated coin, and happens to be one of the date and mint combos without any listed collectible varieties.

Keep hunting, though. There are coins just waiting to be searched and varieties and errors waiting to be found!

@fc, thx for posting about the die clash under the chin. It didn't seem like a die chip so I was wondering.
