rachums107 Pillar of the Community United States 3345 Posts	Posted 07/08/2011 11:50 am Looks AU 55, slight wear on the horn,(fully pointed though) is that streaking called "woody"? Or is it just stained? Report this Post to the Staff
1900Indian Valued Member United States 100 Posts	Posted 07/08/2011 12:04 pm I think it is either a "woody" or just toned like that. It doesn't look like staining to me, but I could be wrong. The streaking is a little less prominent in hand. I thought it added to the attractiveness of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 07/08/2011 12:09 pm I am thinking "woody" as well, but I would say XF-45, wear on the shoulder, hump, and end of tail. Still it's nice! Edited by oih82w8 07/08/2011 12:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 07/08/2011 7:39 pm At first glance looks AU-53 with some interesting toning. I don't think the toning detracts. Report this Post to the Staff
southerngent Valued Member United States 469 Posts	Posted 07/08/2011 7:56 pm I think EF-45 seems right to me from I see! Report this Post to the Staff
Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 07/09/2011 3:10 pm This one is a tough one 9for me anyway!)! The letters and date and the buffalo's head are strong but the obverse hair, braids and feathers and the reverse buffalo body & legs are all lacking in detail. True, it is a full horn... Ok, VF35 with nice streaked staining. Report this Post to the Staff
Ca Dreamin Valued Member United States 149 Posts	Posted 07/10/2011 11:43 am yes, its a woody for sure- which I think looks cool-that doesn't add or subtract value-just an imperfect alloy mix-as far as the grade goes, it looks to me to be XF-40. Report this Post to the Staff
djhughes Valued Member United States 121 Posts	Posted 07/11/2011 07:50 am I would say AU50. I would love to have it in my buffalo collection, and the toning, or woody, whichever the case my be really adds to the eye appeal IMO. Very nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff
