If you do send your coins in, don't expect to get PCGS or NGC or even ANACS prices for them when it comes time to sell. Here is a SEGS MS-65 Type 1 Buffalo I bought last year. I bought it mostly because of the price and the almost terminal die state of the obverse and reverse dies. The reverse die has a fantastic die break that bisects the bison's rear leg. Personally I think the coin would grade in the 63 - 64 neighborhood and I paid $29.99 for it. The light areas with darker halos around them are from a fairly large scratch on the plastic and are not on the coin. [ATTACH=full]648958[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]648959[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
