Picked this up for less than $2. First set of pictures are seller's which were a little dark so I manipulated them for clarity in the second set. Thoughts on grade and problems? Thanks!

It looks like a detailed coin, but it's still worth about $3.

Looks to be VF-25

Technical Grade 40? Photos make it a bit uncertain. Either 35 or 40.

@numismatic student, I didn't realize you manipulated them.
I just jumped to the grading without reading.

The reason why I graded this Buffalo nickel VF-25 was because of three reasons.

When grading circulated buffalo's, you need to pay attention to the horn, Indians hair, and liberty.

Notice the hair hanging down by the date? See how it has knots? Those are supposed to be separated once in XF.
The horn should be full once it's XF. Also the buffalo's head should show some more details.
Liberty should always be sharp once you get to grade Fine and up.

This is the last of the 3 buffalos that came today. This one had the most vibrant colors, which was a real surprise. Again, couldn't have asked for more for $2.
