I still find the 1914-D values anomalous in the entire series. It was early in the series, a relatively large number were made, and book values don't go up quickly with higher grades, not like they do for the 1924-S, for example. I think all of that explantation about die wear, etc., works for the 24-S, but not the 14-D.

In any case, thanks for the thorough response, @fortcollins, and interesting observation about the UK, @Pacificoin.

I enjoyed this discussion of my second favorite US coin design. As a young collector in the old days, I recall accumulating so many dateless Buffalo's that I began ignoring them. Most of my dateless specimens were shipped to a friend who transformed them into jewelry. Couple years ago, I ran into a fellow collector at the McD's who shared this anecdote. Shopping at the local CVS, a Buffalo nickel was included in the change, and he was told by the cashier that she had a whole roll of 'em. Of course, he bought the roll from her. He wondered if he should go back and ask store management if he could trade nickel rolls from their coin vault.

A heads up: A roll of Indian Heads may be headed to the "CCF for sale" forum soon.
