Raw coin, starting bid is actually 47. No bids as of right now. Generally these type of starting bids never go anywhere. If I was the only one bid it'd be 47. Thoughts? Also grade?

Good eye T-BOP. The line continues shallow across the face a bit so idk what could be. Thoughts? This is one I'm considering buying.

I wouldn't be so quick to pull the trigger on that one .There are many 1913 Buff's out there both types 1 & 2 . Do you really want a problem coin .

I actually like this one. A lot going on.

Several obverse die clashes. The usual whisker chin (EPU clash below the chin) as well as the one TBop pointed out below LIBERTY, a clash from the buffalos rear legs. Faint but noticeable clash below the 3rd feather as well.

The reverse is interesting because there's not one, but two clashes in EPU from the fields below the chin. Looks like the first clash (slightly rotated) happened in an early die stage, was polished away (somewhat) and then there was a second clash more recent.

Few larger hits to the cheek that TBop pointed out, handful of small tick marks, and I see some hairlines on the buffalos belly. Can't see this any higher than MS62/63. Cool coin though.

So I was the guy who stepped in and bought this one. There's always got to be "that one guy". Sorry about them.

The clashing was too much of a temptation. The coin in hand is quite nice. It is on its way back from ANACS today. Does anyone else want to place a guess on what grade is on the label?
Rest in Peace

I would pull the pics and start a new thread in the grading section Collects82. Even though I know the grade, I think this will be an Interesting one to get opinions on, it's a cool example! Buffs need more attention!
