<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coin dexter, post: 1454805, member: 22626&quot;]I have collected these Buffalo Nickel&#039;s all of my life and I&#039;m sixty year old man now.&nbsp; I have been lucky enough to have bought many specimens long ago before they huge popularity came along but have also sold many I wish I still had.&nbsp; It&#039;s true that if ya wait the right 1913 type 1 one will come along but it all depends on how right you want em.&nbsp; The type 1 Buff is a VERY popular coin and many folks hold on to the good ones with the big luster and full strikes, not saying ya won&#039;t find one I&#039;m just saying it may not be as easy as you might think lol....I still to this day purchase them if I like it and I have many 13 type 1&#039;s .&nbsp; I like the two your showing here, both have better than average detail especially the one one the bottom.&nbsp; It has a split tail and I think the head details are a bit stronger.&nbsp; The hip bone and flank will always be the first place you&#039;ll see any signs of rub but at the same time the hip bone and flank is also the last place to fill out when struck and this by itself make these coins very difficult to grade as most folks mistake this for rub if it&#039;s a bit flat.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Just for fun here is a couple of my 13 type 1&#039;s....</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/crazyhounddog/13type1s044.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/crazyhounddog/13type1s045.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/crazyhounddog/BUFFS003.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/crazyhounddog/BUFFS005.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/crazyhounddog/1913-Dpcgs66016.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/crazyhounddog/1913-Dpcgs66019.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
