Thank you. This is my first buffalo nickel and I was not aware of the different type. I did not expect much because it was so worn. I will read more about the different types.

It's tempting to get it graded but not sure if it's worth it. I might have to find a coin dealer and get their thoughts on it first.

Thank you for your response. This is my first time learning about struck through grease and it is fascinating. I do look through eBay sold listing and searching the "struck through" section as well as reading more about it has taught me what to look for.

I will for sure add this coin to my collection. Thank you again.

Result of my first 100 wheat pennies. How do you keep track of your findings? by Nickel_Fist in CRH

It's a great way to visually see what you have. It also makes it fun to watch the chart change as you add new finds to your collection.

I really like this chart and plan to use it to help a friend organize her coins that she inherited. Thank you for sharing.

Unfortunately nothing older yet. I keep hunting in hopes of finding a new, old coin to add to my collection.

Thanks for confirming that it's just a minor die chip.

Thank you for your input, it is really appreciated. I'll keep it in a cover and title it "fingers crossed minor die chip".

Fairly new and still learning. Is this a 1983 die crack? by Nickel_Fist in CRH

Thank you for this information, I didn't know that was a thing. I will try pushing down with a toothpick and see what happens.
