I have read that these can have a satin finish. But looks strange to me, I see no luster. Or is it dipped or something? Not my coin but I'm thinking on buying. bad pics but its what I got. Glad for help   |

I would pass, unless you can get better pictures from the seller.
Errers and Varietys.

Pass, odd color could be hiding those streaks on the obverse. Solid strike on the head but the middle of the bison appears weakly struck. I believe satin refers to the 1936 proofs, which were satin or brilliant (and this is not a proof)

 these photos are just poor quality to risk it. the reverse photos makes the coin appear to be cleaned and all the original skin removed. not a good choice |

Got some more photos, looks to be in natural light. Colours on obverse seem to be uneven Is it still a hard pass?   Edited by Moniker

Better photos. Color looks natural. A nice AU-58 with split tail.

Still hard to tell the originality of the surfaces, especially on the reverse, but mid-AU looks about right. The split tail just indicates a decent strike and not a lot of wear, but probably not much of a premium over and above the actual grade. Hope it looks good when you get it in hand!

This is a problem coin. How much is the amount you are purchasing for, that would be driving factor. 1913 is a key date? If not, please pass.  |

Something looks odd with the craginess of the cheekbones. Maybe die clash remnants? I can see clash marks in EPU, and die flow around the bust, buffalo, and edges, yet the fields look very flat and clean.
