I just bought these cause I thought that they were a good price and just wanted to have a couple more so when I start my buffalo collection I will be able to fill a couple holes, so can you give me a grade for them and tell me if $20 was a good price. thanx 1913 type 1(has a scratch across face), 1916-d, 1917-s

G6 - 1916-D G4 - 1917-S VG10 Scr. - 1913 ty.1
$20 was a good price even with the 16-D possibly cleaned and the scratch on the 13 ty.1 which BTW has nice eye-appeal regardless.

I would call the 1913 a VF-20 at least. You did good!

Similar to this, what's the premium on a circulated 1913 T1 buff with no date? Obviously the date is nice, but does the price drop significantly if there is no date? I mean, it's clear that it's a 1913 with the raised ground. I get dateless buffs from my coin dealer weekly at 15¢ each. I search for the mm'd ones and raised ground ones and set them aside. I've been hoarding them for a while now. I've got almost half a roll of the raised ground, and a few rolls of mm'd ones. I've also got about $20 face of no date no mm ones. I'm waiting to get enough to sell a large lot on ebay for hopefully the 15¢ that I paid. Anyway, back to my original question: is there a premium on dateless raised ground buffalos?

I would think so, I would guess a non-dated Buffalo with raised ground would be $2-$5 maybe more depending on condition, and more if they have MM's.

As already noted a good start and nice prices for those coins. Just hopefully you didn't have to pay some outrageous postage, handling, insurance fees.

no, shipping was free and the actual price was $19.95 so even if it had a couple dollars shipping cost I still would have bought it. I did see a couple good deals on Buffalo nickels with outrageous $10+ shipping.
