<p>[QUOTE=&quot;OldDan, post: 104252, member: 1872&quot;]Sorry Speedy, but PCI may have been generous in their grading of this coin.</p><p>As you said, the 1926-S along with many more of the indian head nickels were weakly struck, but there is a limit as to what is acceptable even under these condition.</p><p>Your Buffalo&#039;s back lacks the detail I would have expected in a coin graded higher than Fine.&nbsp; The tail which helps in the grading of Buffalo&#039;s in about right for a Fine. From what I could tell, the reverse will grade higher than the obverse because of the lettering and rim.&nbsp; If it were me I would have prefered a better date, but for a Fine it is about par these days.</p><p>Twenty years ago, it wouldn&#039;t have been given much more than a VG and the owner would have been happy to get that with this coin.</p><p>Any way, that is how I see it, but if your happy, that is all that really counts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
