<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 5140391, member: 19250&quot;]Well this is where I will end this post.....as Justin nailed it.</p><p>His reply is 100 % correct .</p><p>Now true others gave it a 65 also but didn&#039;t elaborate&nbsp; on the reason.</p><p>To those of you who gave it a 66 or higher how I wish you all were correct....due to value.</p><p>I didnt loose on this coin as the purchase price was no where near the profits made.</p><p>This again was another educational piece. The reverse is a luster bomb,as well hammered, &#039;New die&#039; the obverse not being struck with a fresh die, the luster looks mute not bright, the strike is soft ,and the die has been worked on several times to extend its life.</p><p>I was still happy with the 65 grade....and the specimen in general.</p><p>Buffalos are sometimes difficult to grade... knowing the series helps determine if youll be able to pick a gem.</p><p>There&#039;s nothing wrong with a coin struck as such,im sure many would be happy with a 65 grade. But just imagine this coin where the obv.and rev. Were hammered like this ones reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope you learned something new from this post....I have...we had some very knowlegeable members post to this thread .</p><p>It is difficult at times to judge a specimen by a photo..... but it helps when others add their knowlege to the thread so all benefit. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1206019[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
