I have a slight concern for the BU designation. It is a nice coin, but the detail missing at the braid seems rather worn.

In my opinion, I'd say no.

I would call it BU. The MM is touching the E, but I don't see any clear RPM from the pics and the MM location wouldn't really add any value. Do you have an RPM match for this? These are the known types:

009 may be a match, but I can't quite tell.

Looks normal from what I see. It is a nice coin though. The braid is not coin wear, but probably a Struck Through Grease issue. This coin is a keeper as it is an earlier die state. A real joy for a Buffalo collector to find. Here is what a RPM would look like:
