That's why the horn alone cannot be used when grading the coin. We recently had an uncirculated 1926-S Buffalo in stock that had no horn whatsoever! The coin had the surfaces of a nice MS-64 coin with no areas of high point rub often found in lower MS graded Buffalos, but was only graded MS-60 due to the poor strike.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
