This is a difficult coin to photo, but it has nice grey surfaces with streaks of gold and bronze color running throughout both sides, the origin of which I am not certain.

This came in a 2x2 that said VF35, how would you grade it?

I'd say the 2x2 is correct. A quite nice mid-range buffalo.
Rest in Peace

Looks like VF 30 - you are just missing the point of the horn, VF35 usually shows a compete outline of the horn tip.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. 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."
