Found Buffalo Nickel, Grade?

I found this in a roll this weekend. I actually gasped when I saw it. I know it is at least a F-15, but what would you grade it (I'm a complete novice at grading). I know it isn't anything rare, but it was rare for me to find (only the 2nd buffalo I've ever found in circulation), and I was thrilled!!!





Thanks for looking.

I'd say VF-30. The horn is almost complete.

 

That would be a 30/35. Nice find. I cannot remember the last time I found a Buffalo in circulation, but it has been decades.

 

Oddly after not finding anything in circulation for years, I found a silver war nickel (1943-P) and a Buffalo Nickel within two days of each other last week.

 

Bob sweet find! I have found just a couple of these since I have been searching my first one I have found is my favorite:

 

Nice buffalo. I'd say VF, possibly EF, but VF at the very least.

 

I think I see some luster...enough luster that I'd grade the coin XF.

Yeah, yeah, I know what the standards say about the horn. I don't care.

 

WTG! Excellent find Bod! Thanks for sharing! :smile

 

Outstanding find in a roll! I would call it a 35.

 

2nd buffalo you've found in circulation? WOW! Two more than I have found

 

Ditto dat! :hail:

 

Awesome buffalo and your right they are not very common anymore and I have yet to find one in circulation. I would say VF also.:mouth:

 

Nice find! I was shocked to find a buffalo nickel in a roll last week as well.

 

I've never found a buffalo in circ...congrats! That had to have been recently added into circ, as even a non-coin collector would keep such an odd looking nickel if they came across it in their pocket change...especially it being 74 years old.
