NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 4:05 pm Is it still a good find? Read they are still rare Spear or no Spear. If it's of anyone's interest I'll try to get the whole coin in pic without blur. Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2955 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 4:49 pm Well, with 487.6 million minted, this coin is hardly rare, but you would be right that the well known speared buffalo is a scarce/rare die gouge error which does indeed carry a premium. I am still looking for one myself. Report this Post to the Staff

NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/27/2023 10:54 pm Found another one. One D one P. P is on top, looks like there are differences with his right eye. Can't see it without a Loupe or microscope. The corner of his eye seems different. Report this Post to the Staff
NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/27/2023 11:33 pm And another difference between D & P, maybe. The rolls in his "scarf" are different at the point where they meet his chin. D P Edited by NEWmrMatic 02/27/2023 11:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 05:47 am Not certain what your question is other that "is it a good find?" Well, considering the high number minted, it is hardly rare. Keep it if you like it, otherwise keep searching! Report this Post to the Staff
NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 08:14 am These are two different coins same year different mints in the new pics. One is D, one is P. I'm not sure the Marks in his eye and scarf roll ends are PMD. The scarf roll ends are completely different. And the eye Marks & details are literally not visible without a Loupe or microscope. For the eye details (sclera) to be PMD it would have needed to be done by a nano-gnome with a neutrino sized pick. Report this Post to the Staff
NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 08:49 am It would be interesting for someone who has two of these from different mints (non Spear) to compare theirs for the same marks & differences I see in mine. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 10:32 am Looks more like coin contact on a normal Nickel to me. Just a face value coin now. Report this Post to the Staff
