That's a beauty!
You need to polish that slab a little bit.
These are great coins!
In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
Great Buff. Yes do clean that holder.

Always wanted one of those but have never made it happen. Very nice and smart move to get a perfect example

Wow, nice!
Way nice, I like 👍
Thanks everyone for your comments, especially the ones for the scratches. Speaking of that- what would you recommend to polish the scratches out?
What a gem.
I use Mequires plastic polish. It's not very easy to do. Takes rime and patience. I suggest a little at a time.

Thanks. I'm actually looking for both versions of the 1936, matte and satin.
I’ll never forget in the early 80s going into coin shops and seeing all the proof sets in the Capital holders with their proof buffaloes, Mercurys and walkers. Couldn’t afford them then but I can’t remember how much they were. Used to capture my attention but instead I walked away that first day with a Proof bicentennial set and a statue of Liberty commemorative set.

Thanks again everyone!
Congratulations on such a beautiful proof. I’ve gotta say it’s very pleasing to the eyeballs.
Great looking Buffalo
And a microfiber towel.
What a strike!
Wowzer! What a cool coin.
