Newb at collecting and grading. I don't recall what I paid for this. Thanks!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

thanks. I guess it should be 1937-D. Missed the mintmark.

Only slight hints of rub so I'd be at AU-58. Nice looking Buff.

AU-58 would also be my guess.
Nice Buffalo!

The buffalo looks awesome. The pics make it a little tough to tell if it makes ms. I will go au58 at worst. Possibly ms but again the pics would need to be clear when I blow them up to make a solid call. Nice looking coin though.

Thanks to all. Seems like consensus is that it is an attractive slider.

Based on these pictures ..
I am with the AU 58 group...
If the focus was a little sharper and a little better lighting
it might get into MS
