It would be helpful if you posted larger images of the full coin. Agree with the Frog that the magnified images add no value at all. From what I can see XF40/45 Nice semi-key date score for $28  |

There's just not enough there for AU - XF 45 to me also. For $28 you did good. Reverse has obvious scratches and your closeups almost make it look like an old cleaning - I'd take the 45 straight grade and run!

Easy XF-40 maybe 45 pending on shoulder detail.
Why is it with some posted photos you can "click on to expand" and others you can't?

Shots fight each other between Pixlar and Google. Rest assured their pin tip clear until ran through pixlar's thunder run. No excuses here its on my end can't figure it out.

Pacific your tough on this nickel, Ive looked at some AU-50 pcgs examples scuffed up and with less horn and less rim gap from tail to rim. Liberty looks strong flatness on 3 and head appear morr strike issue thsn wear? Technically shouldnt coin be AU?

I went back to Buffalo nickel school and I stand corrected, coin lacks the AU sharpness and overall punch expected with AU. Good eyes everyone thank you for opionions. |

Over the last year , with CAC now GRADING
all of the grading services have really tightened up .
This nickel is a nice coin upon cursory
examination. However the rump and tail
both show wear . The horn does not look
sharp at the tip and also shows light wear.
The Native American shows a touch too
much wear below the hair part , the date
starting to flatten .
There are what appears to be light patchy
hairlines . A possible light old cleaning .
Thus VF35 .

AU50 and well struck. Nice looking coin.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
