I just purchased this one for my certified type set. How would you grade it? The whitish area above the braid is a scuff on the slab.

Thanks for looking!

MS66 but these coins are another tough to grade from a photo, this one has some incredible luster .

Strike is a bit weak, I think it graded 64 or 65.

I apologize for not putting the grade up sooner. Here is the PCGS grade:

1913-Type-1-Buffalo-Nickel,-You-Vs.-PCGS-&-CAC

I don't think that I did this coin justice with my photos. The coin has great luster in hand. This coin replaced a PCGS MS66 that I had in my set for a few years. A few months ago, I came across a PCGS MS67; however, I preferred my old MS66 to that one. I'm happy with this coin and I don't think I'll be looking to upgrade it any time soon.

Thanks for the grades.

Beauty, I missed the plus, but I see MS66 all day long. I don't think it is weakly struck, the center of the obverse slab holder looks to have either a scuff or reflection blurring some of the coins detail. Nice coin nolawyer
