SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 01/23/2014 01:02 am Glorious coin. I see nothing keeping it from 65. For comparison, here's one that passed under my lens, which PCGS thought worthy of MS66: I don't see a whole lot of difference. Johnny676767, have a very close look at the mint mark on this coin. There are a few variations (RPM's, OMM's) for this year, each of which are value-added. The coin I posted is a D/S OMM; it's a $75 coin in grade today, without the variety, which I got $250 for 6 years ago. Report this Post to the Staff

7TF Pillar of the Community 743 Posts	Posted 01/27/2014 07:55 am MS65 or better unless there are hidden flaws the picture did not pick up. It is dang near one of the best raw buffalo's I have seen, although I have not seen a lot of raw MS buffalo's so that don't mean much, I am also not experienced with grading these. Someone mentioned the horn looks weak, I would assume that is just from the strike and would not affect the grade. Report this Post to the Staff
