Pretty nice horn but has some striations on the obverse that might hurt the grade. Anybody have any experience with the 1929 FS-101? There's not a lot of info that I can find and I still haven't bought a Cherry Picker's guide (I know I know lol). Thanks in advance!

Kinda overall looks like an AU-50ish to me, and appears to be a DDO to my eyes at least ...

Looks promising for the DDO. Can we get a closeup shot of the ribbon and braid?

Would need sharper pics to determine grade, or at least judge the surfaces. Looks XF to me, could be a details coin due to surface preservation. I would also recommend getting this one in acetone and lightly roll over the surfaces with an acetone soaked qtip. Looks to have pvc residue, primarily on the reverse.

Thanks a bunch, guys! Here's a closeup of the braid, and can someone tell me a good place to sell raw coins? I have an 1888/7 IHC I'd like to get some money from but it would be too much to sell on ebay without being graded. Feel free to message or email me plantguy396@yahoo.com

Thanks for the info on grading but that's stuff I can find online. I'm pretty familiar with grading buffalos, I just asked the question here to get others opinions. Thanks tho.
