How would you grade this Buffalo nickel?

Keep in mind that this coin was struck from a tired die, and the details on both the obverse and reverse are weak. I was oblivious to quality of strike when I bought this nickel; however, I didn't pay too much for it, and it was a good lesson learned.

Overall, this coin has very good eye-appeal, and what I believe to be a minor die clash above the Indian's nose.

Definitely higher than VF. XF45 with a chance at AU.

XF-45 is what I see. Weak strike, I see some luster on the reverse field.

Looks like nice luster all around the buffalo on the reverse, and I agree this looks like weak strikes, which was common for the 1914 P. I am at AU-53.
