Recently I acquired 28 Buffalo nickels that I will be posting for grading. Hopefully we can learn together about grading these.

Picked this up for $59. Thoughts about grade and problems? Thanks!

I think reverse lines are in holder.

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."

This was indeed scratched. Clearer in-hand pictures. Thoughts appreciated!

The coin has several long scratches on the reverse. In my opinion it grades XF45 details scratched. It has a nice full horn. This will be going back to the seller.
