What is your opinion on the grade of this 1925 S Buffalo based just on the reverse image? Would you consider it a better than average strike for the date?

Based solely on the reverse; better than average strike and die state for the date . XF45.

But why not post the obverse?

Hmm, interesting... Was also thinking an XF-45 best, but the obverse perhaps has a hugly weak strike appearing only a F-15 to VFish... The date could also be half gone but not necessarily from wear.

These teens/twenties Buffalo nickels are notorious for weak strikes especially the 1926-D and a few other issues in this series.

XF-40; but like everyone else has said, an obverse photo is necessary to best analyze the coin.

I'm going with XF40 and i'd bet if it was slabbed they would call it a VF30 coin.
