Post mint damage.

Someone applied “something” to put a “mask” over the eyes to simulate war paint or something

A random example:

The Buf should look like this (CoinFacts):

It will cost you around $50+ for grading, fees, and postage to send it in.

I agree with @Hemispherical It's damaged. Looks like some type of solder or braze, but it really doesn't matter what caused the damage, the numismatic value has been reduced

1973 Kennedy! Mintmark placement? Opinions?

Oldhoopster

It's damage, not a mintmark. The coin took a hit after it left a mint.

FYI - If you have a question, it's best to start a new thread. This thread is about buffalo nickels. Members won't have any idea that there is question about a Kennedy half tacked on to the end of it
