Question about 1918 S 2 Feathers 5Cents 1 1

[Fullhorn]

Here are pictures of my nickel.

And here are pictures of one that is designated 2 Feathers. Notice the die crack on the date and across the face on both examples. Anyway I am wondering if mine has what it takes for the designation. Thanks in advance,

It looks like a 2 feather to me!

While it does look to be from the same obverse die I do see the third feather on your example, so I would have to say that your coin is of an earlier die state than that of the 2 feather example you have shown.  And as such would not qualify as a 2 feather coin.

Your coin is of the 2-Feathers die state, so it would be attributed by NGC.

[Fullhorn]

Thanks Guys! I appreciate it.

Especially Mr. Lange, I think it is great you participate in the forum answering questions.

I use your Buffalo Nickel book often. It has been here next to my desk for almost twenty years.

@Fullhorn woohoo!  I feel famous that my coin pic was used for reference.  

Congrats on getting another one identified and presumably attributed shortly.  Yours is friggin' beautiful.

Sorry for not asking permission. Your coin is so similar I could not help myself. It looks like my coin with just a little more wear. I didn't know you were a member here and thought I would sneak it in. I appreciate your being a good sport.

Oh, no worries at all.  If I put something online, especially an eBay listing, I fully allow that it's public domain at that point.  I'm honestly happy enough that it could serve as a reasonable reference.  Some coins photograph easier than others for me and I don't have the best equipment but I'm making do.
