Is this the super rare 1918/7 D Buffalo nickel?

I could make a birth year registry set out of pocket change.

    I sure do not see the underling 7. It should be visible in the lower 8 loop as

    well as on top of the 8.

    No.
    Like Bob said, the diagonal of the 7 should be visible in both loops of the 8,
    and will also make the 8 flat on top.
    I was lucky to find one, right in the 1918-D spot in my grandfather's Whitman folder
    (the one shown below is not mine).

    Nope
    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Not the overdate nor is the variety any kind of a great rarity except in high grade. Good to fine coins are easy to come by tho expensive. As can be seen from the images posted it's a very prominent overdate and easily identified even in AG-Good if you know what to look for.
