johnny676767 Pillar of the Community United States 521 Posts	Posted 08/29/2016 11:31 pm Hello, I have been assembling a certified date set of Buffalo nickels in the 63-65 range. I'm looking at this one. Looks nice for a 63 but may be a bit high at its current $105 bid with a day to go. http://www.ebay.com/itm/37171800129...RK:MEBIDX:IT What do you think? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 07:40 am I was thinking it's a -64 with a weakish strike, particularly on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 07:52 am Price is much to high for a 63 . I'm not sure if the obverse scratch is on the coin or holder . IMHO Stay away . Report this Post to the Staff
terry8835 Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 3:14 pm The price is about retail and I think you can do better. I have noticed that even the most rare of the Buffalo nickels were selling at discounts in VF to EF grades. I think when you get to MS63 then the seller can command higher prices. One of the guys here bought some Buffalo's at really deep discounts. I was buying 1921-S in Fine for VG price and same went for other scare ones being able to buy VF at F price and EF at VF prices. The ones I bought were mostly raw. I got to check prices. I might try to look at them again and buy coins up to where they really jump in value. You notice most coins have a take-off grade where price really jumps. I try to buy just below that level. Report this Post to the Staff
