There are 9 known 1930 DDO Buffalo nickels documented. Three of them are listed in The Cherrypickers guide. The DDO-002 for some reason is not one of them. Wexler calls it a "best of" variety. It is very similar to the 1915 DDO, FS-101. The eyelid is dramatically doubled as is the nostril. It receives little fanfare and few probably collect it. I was lucky enough to cherry pick this one recently. I took several pics at various magnifications. I would call it very scarce to rare. With little following it would carry a very small premium. To a Buffalo variety nut like me it's priceless! I thought I'd share it everyone. I doubt you will see another. Enjoy!

Good nostril shots. I like this piece.
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.
Pretty coin, great pictures and another overlooked variety. One of my first 1930 DDO cherrypicks. Currently resides in an ANACS soapbox MS-64.
