<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2135159, member: 19250&quot;]This Buffalo is a nicely toned coin with nice eye appeal. I purchased it last week at the coin show I was working. The dealer from whom I purchased it from for the most part we have had a decent business relationship.&nbsp; However I have had now two issues with him. The first was a Nickel three cent Piece. I had seen it at a show a week before I purchased it.The following week I made the purchase and once I got home removed it from the 2x2 found it had a bad gash across the bottom of the roman numerals.</p><p>He never&nbsp; smashes the staples on the 2x2 and the gash was a staple scrape. Since I had opened the coin I knew I was the owner. I did however say something to him about this.&nbsp; That he kind of blew it off....</p><p><br /></p><p>Now this coin in question the 29 S Buffalo. Once again he&#039;s has put a coin out there that by any means is a nice looking coin however it has two rim dings up over Liberty!</p><p>so yes it has issues and that said it should of not been sold as a coin with no issues.</p><p>The reason I missed this is because he always uses the smaller 2x2&#039;s that are really 1.5x1.5. and the coin fills the window so you truly don&#039;t see the rims fully until it&#039;s removed. As luck would have it I did notice the dings before removing the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>So as it stands it&#039;s not open. I did however&nbsp; scope the coin and I believe it to be an 1929 S DDO!&nbsp; I&#039;ll post some images and see what you think.{ Remember the images are shot through plastic.}&nbsp; Should I keep it with the damage, or return it. Since this is a raw coin I would grade it as an AU toned . The DDO PUP is the date and ribbons to me the date is an DDO. coin.</p><p>I do plan in to once again address him on not reveling damage or coins with issues.</p><p>As we won&#039;t do business again unless I can remove the coin from the holder and view it before making a purchase.</p><p>&nbsp;I will also add this was shot with a scope not a camera, and the space shown between the coin and edge of the window looks larger in the image. </p><p>It has also lost a lot of the true color of this coin. As it has a nice rainbow copper greenish tint.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]407126[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]407127[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]407128[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]407129[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]407131[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
