[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 2651511, member: 19250"]Number 1 the 1915 P are among the most sharply struck coins of the series. Number 2 they are known by TPG'S as a coin that is very often submitted to be graded as proof specimens. The fact is that the proofs and MS nickel are so close that it is a recurring issues as MS being sent in as Proof strikes. Number 3 Most have a satin like finish luster associated with proof coins. Thus it is believed that many were struck with retired proof dies. Number 4 As the dies wore the luster they produced became more frosty and textured . Yet no matter their die state they remained with outstanding luster. Number 5 do to all of the above the 1915 P buffalo is a tad bit more expensive { not in this case} than other P buffalo's , makes for the perfect specimen by date for a type set. mintage 20,987,270 ranked 45/64 Thus I rest my case that the TPG whom graded this had no idea what they were grading.[/QUOTE]
