Sorry for the poor image, it's not mine. I know as well as you do that strike thru's are pretty darn common and the value of them is usually in the cents and not in the dollars. Here is an interesting one though that one of our board members nephews owns. I think it's pretty cool. Much cooler then the "speared buffalo" and probably a lot less of them!

Okay?

The quality of the 05-D Jeffs will make it tough to make high grades. That`s if the rolls of D mint nickels I`ve searched are any indication but, they do make for interesting finds.
The missing T nickel is pretty cool.........I hope to find something in the last couple of rolls I have left to look at.

I don't think so. This one is on it's way to my house to take a better look at and sell for him. Do you remember the selling price of the specimen you saw on ebay?
BTW: A friend came from Dallas today and gave me a roll of Bisons she had saved for me, just about to open.

One roll left to search......did find a couple of weakly struck IV in FIVE examples. Other then that maybe 2 that could grade ms65.

I got my two rolls of Buffalo nickels allotted from the bank and went through them last night. I think it's the obverse design that really makes any sort of scratch show up. I picked out the better of the coins and will send the rest on their way into circulation....
A bump
I searched my last roll and nothing.

I searched my first two rolls last night.
- I have a few above average coins set aside
- I have a couple with clear die polish marks by Jefferson's lips/nose
- I have one strike through of a thread or such below the word trust.
Ask me no questions, I'll tell you no lies.
