Nice pick up! Amazing that the coin circulates for so long without being 'discovered'.

 

Great coin, hard to find in any grade; nice pick-up!

 

Awesome coin!

 

My RedBook says thats a $1000 coin in G4 condition...and you found it in change?! Awesome!

 

I dont think he found it in change... he owns a coin shop.

 

I wish I found it.... or even cherry picked it... but alas... I bought it outright.

 

Ah dang! But still thats awesome!

 

I would love to have one of those. Beautiful coin you have there.

 

Rims are a little weak, but the obverse detail is strong. Surfaces look a little porous and the date is a little weak but full. So it has a few negatives, but I think it could safely be called a Good-4.

 

Definitely a nice pick up if you need one. Are you going to get it slabbed and graded?

 

Nice pickup!

 

I haven't decided if certification is going to be the route for this coin yet.

 

I didn't research it but going from memory, that seems to have a great deal more detail than slabbed examples in G04, on the obverse at least. Cool find!

 

Yes G-4 is an excellent rating for the coin's condition. I like the overprint on these Buffalos because it can be seen with the naked eye. Nothing aggravates me more than doubling or re-punched mint marks when you have to break out your X10 loupe in order to even see it. Nice purchase.
