Whats going on with the date on this Buffalo??

PRIZ430

Is this DDO or machine doubling on this 1914-s Buffalo???

Machine doubling, but I believe a machine doubled date is also one of the diagnostics for the controversial 1914/3 Buffalo. Are there also clash marks under the chin? Maybe Ron or one of the other members will have some insight.

Shelf/strike doubling and nothing special. On the plus side you appear to have a high grade early buff !

Yes...A full horn...looks AU to my uneducated eye...was hoping for DDO....But better sense led me to believe it was probably machine doubling....

Machine doubling is common with this series.

Yes-machine doubling is found on most examples of Die #1-one of the good ones and the discovery die for the variety.

Guess I had better mention-your coin is not the overdate.

Looks like machine doubling to me as well. It also looks like it caught part of the lace closest to the 4 in 1914.

Sweet coin !!
