Gorgeous!

 

You should see it in hand!! The images were shot using a combination of axial and direct light, so the luster is muted quite a bit. But in hand, the luster is just wow!! The lime green and lemon yellows on the obverse just explode with the luster. The reverse is nothing short of wow!! I was honestly surprised my dealer didn't charge a heck of a lot more for it.

 

What's the market rate for something like that?

 

I paid a little over $30 (with shipping). I would value it in the $50-$75 range.

 

Is this market acceptable toning? Thinking of sending it in for a grade.

 

IMO, yes.

 

Here's one that just arrived in the mail today.

 

I'll take it!

 

Sweet buffalo got my attention ms-66 buffalo at sun set.

 

Now that is stunning!!

 

That is exactly what I thought when I saw it!

We could have some sunset coins...

 

Market acceptable: Yes.
Market desirable: I don't think so. That coin looks near terminal on the obverse.

 

Doesn't terminal toning mean black, or close to it? The base color of the coin is light violet, with green/blue/orange highlights.

 

Not seeing anything terminal looking, where are you seeing this on obverse?

I think it's market acceptable and has a market where it's desirable. I like the reverse personally myself and am neutral on the obverse.

I think I'd worry more about the grade when considering sending it in. If it's worth it to you to send in for what looks to be a 64-65 (?) then I'd say go for it. I probably would.
