Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 1770 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 8:06 pm Another I picked up with the others, same local seller. Also going into the 7070. Paid $30. Not the best strike, but I have this one at VF-20, not sure if that hit above the date would Details it. My AU-MS Buffalo nickel Set http://goccf.com/t/387261 Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 7711 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 9:36 pm I have it at vf30, but it has some problems. Looks like some metal movement above the date and a more recent scratch below the eagle's neck/breast. Also, many of the FECs have a surface with many shallow black spots which is really prevalent in the reverse but can also be seen more sparsely in the right obverse field. If placing one in a 7070, I would locate one that didn't have these issues. There are many of these around in this grade so finding one wouldn't be too difficult. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 53688 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 9:53 pm Agree mid-VF details (scratched, gouged, reverse porosity). Report this Post to the Staff

Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 1770 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 10:14 am Why I didn't go back and double check this one . Well I dont know what happened during editing, but that "gouge"/doubled image, isn't there. All I adjusted in Lightroom was the exposure, contrast, and shadows. Here's the obverse again....without the glitch. Edit: after spending a bit more time with this one in hand, I can certainly see VF-25. The reverse appears to be more of a dark toning/discoloration, and really not seeing an porosity. I picked up number of coins from this seller, guess I was a little to eager to use the new camera and get things posted...... lesson learned!! Still not sure what happened in the original obv pic. If anyone has any ideas, I left it up for reference. Thanks all! My AU-MS Buffalo nickel Set http://goccf.com/t/387261 Edited by Ty2020b 11/24/2020 10:31 am Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 2724 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 10:47 am I'd say VF-30, probably straight without the displaced claw. I don't think that small obverse gouge or the reverse surface would detail it, but the reverse is not particularly attractive. Report this Post to the Staff
