Buffalo Nickel Grade

I hope I did this correct. I would like to know what you think the grade and what you would actually pay for this.

This was the first time I ever did this, took me about 20 to 25 minutes to get this picture here. For all I know this picture is also listed in the FBI files. The reverse definitley corressponds correctly to the obverse. This time bear with me and just evaluate the obverse, I will get better at this.

I would probably grade it F/VF. Am I missing something?

Use something like photobucket.com - makes it easier. I would say VF also, but need the reverse to be more accurate.

I'll try to post the reverse of a coin the next time I try this. First time I dealt with moving photos. Anyway I was on ebay looking at buffalo nickels and I bid on this coin. There was an unusually high number of these expiring at practically the same time. I won't be quitting my night job over this, but I bought this for $0.09. Even with the shipping and handling it is still < than $3.00. This coin for that price is not bad IMO. I'm not meaning to say anything other than I never paid nine cents for a coin. S&H costs are almost always there when ordering or "winning" an auction coin.
