GRR Valued Member United States 310 Posts	Posted 05/04/2011 3:38 pm Found this really nice nickel in an album here. Try to scan it. seems a little washed out on the feathers, and the luster didn't come through as great. Either way, wanted to post up these pics and see where people graded it.

1900Indian Valued Member United States 100 Posts	Posted 05/05/2011 6:26 pm Decent coin, but I would bump the grade down to EF. The obverse looks to have a little bit to much wear around LIBERTY and in the feathers.. It could get an AU grade depending on the eye appeal of the coin in hand, but IMO from the scans it looks like a higher grade EF. Report this Post to the Staff

eddiespin Pillar of the Community United States 1547 Posts	Posted 05/06/2011 11:07 am From a technical standpoint that's a very hard one to grade off images because of the late die state. It's problem-free, though. Report this Post to the Staff

GRR Valued Member United States 310 Posts	Posted 05/07/2011 8:04 pm I think it's late die state myself, The liberty looks more weak struck than wore in person. The 2 Feathers on the head and the hair have much more detail in person. Really, couldn't get a great scan of this without it washing out. Maybe one of these days I'll figure out how to take decent pics. This buffalo just poped out at me when I was going through the album. Report this Post to the Staff
