So tell us why you think it is worth a sticker.
Grade it at a 45

I appreciate you taking a guess and it's also because it's one of the best looking examples I've seen in this particular Grade... It's 80% Horn showing and the Buffalos back looks great as well.

On the obverse the feathers looks detailed and the cheek and chin also look nicely defined..

After a few more opinions, I'll tell what Grade it received.

It's definitely 3 Legs and I will reveal the grade in 30 minutes from now. I'm hoping to get a little more advice on grade. Thanks again Folks..

I would say yes; another way to say it is "authentic."

Alright, thank you! I have another question, CAC Sticker or send it for a regrade, and hope for a higher grade? Which would make it worth more? I would assume an XF-40 but someone showed me Grey sheet that the CAC Sticker is worth more, is that correct?

You know I've been looking for a nice reasonable example for over a year now but there are a few more respected members I'd like to hear from until then here's my thoughts, I put it at 40 because of the knot on the braid, feathers and the buffs horn, at 35 I feel it has a high likelihood of getting a green bean. So if CAC still holds to the rule; pay if it stickers and no charge if it doesn't. then go for it.

You have to take Greysheet with a grain of salt and solid research of your own. There are lots of coins in any series that technically make the grade given by the TPG but are otherwise lacking eye appeal (also subjective).

In this case a VF35 with a green bean may sell for a higher price than some XF40s without a bean, but certainly won't beat them all.

Otherwise, you coin looks very nice, but not a series I collect, so going to pass on the grade question and whether a bean might apply.

Ps, maybe get it reholdered into a fresh scratch free case before sending to CAC.
