[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 4277334, member: 19250"]Here's a little information to go on... There was a slight change to the design this year.This change by most goes unnoticed. "Liberty" is more distinct and set father in from the rim. This year for the most part with decent strike and good luster! Sharpness of design weak 2% typical 40% sharp 50% full 8% Yes there were 2 lights used to shoot both coins, 1 directly above at 12k the other moved to light across the surface to show the color of the toning as well luster under the tone. True the question asked was which coin was graded higher.....A or B but the true purpose of this thread is to get you to use what you know ,and understand about buffalo nickels to make a choice.....in your eye.....and give a reason why these 2 coins differ in your opion. Another point one may consider is time frame of the slabs graded and by whom.....which can make a difference in grades....but at this point of this thread will not be given as again .....your call not the TPG.[/QUOTE]
