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 $10. Thoughts about grade and problems? 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."

Typical weakly struck D-mint of the era, but I can see the bend on the horn, meaning that's a solid half horn.
VG-8

I am in at G4. I do not think there is horn enough to pull that coin up to VG given the rest of the detail.
