eaglebub7 Valued Member United States 378 Posts	Posted 06/12/2022 9:11 pm Thought I'd share one of my buffalo's showing pretty bad PMD. It appears whoever did this took their time doing it, as it looks to me like they missed scratching the device and the rim, for the most part, on the obverse, then gave up on the reverse.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19207 Posts	Posted 06/13/2022 08:06 am I'd love to have it in a 2x2 as a curiosity. Perhaps intended to become a hobo nickel, but the attempt stalled at the start. Report this Post to the Staff
