I sent this Buffalo to PCGS. I dunno, what do you think?

I had nothing to go with it, but thought what the hay. I hope I don't regret sinking 80 bucks into the grading fees and shipping. Seems a little crusty but I'm hopeful. What do you think?

    If genuine it's worth it just being in a details holder.

    1918/7-D. I don't see any serious marks on it except for honest wear. Looks like a couple small chips on the reverse rim by CA in AMERICA.

    Small ding on obverse rim near the date.

    I think it will holder at G-6.

    I agree it's worth more in a details holder. My vote is VG Details environmental damage....it looks a little porous on the obv. to me.

    You did good. Hope for a nice grade for you. Most would not have sent it in, or even noticed, but we are not most.

    Definitely looks like the 8/7 and should straight grade.

    No problem VG08 IMO. Did you cherrypick it?

    Let us know what the results are. Lately, turn around seems to be fairly quick. You might get the online results before Christmas.

    It is definitely worth more attributed than raw.

    Nice catch... bet a lot of people just attributed it to wear - if they even noticed. Cheers, RickO

    Great pick. Should grade G6. Regardless, as others have stated, great eye and well worth the time and money. Thanks for sharing.

    Nice find.

    I think it will straight grade G06.
    It's really a VG08 but they will ring you for the light porosity.
