I’ve had this one stored away for a bit, waiting for my CU membership to renew for a trip to our hosts. With the state of Truviews, I decided to get my images done elsewhere. Last thing I want is this piece to be represented as some gold hued toner. What grade do you see this piece?

MS-65+. It is close to MS-66 or higher, especially because of the sharp strike. There are a number of small spots, however, which pull it down.
66+
Edited to add: Whatever the grade, that’s a very attractive example!

I can't grade buffalo nickels but I will say that is a very nice coin. PQ

Range of 65-66 Great looking Buff, I wonder how many Buffs that were put away like yours are still out there?
Those few tiny spots should not downgrade the coin to anything lower than a 66, considering the lovely luster and decent strike. So 66.
67
Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.
Incomplete top feather. Seems like that's more common for this year. 24-D is especially bad.
MS-65

Late state dies, some minor spotting, I would call it MS65 but P market grades and loves luster so I'd guess MS66 from there. Good call on getting the photos done elsewhere, hopefully P doesn't force you to upgrade to gold shield and do TV's anyway.

Very nice buffalo. My guess is 66.
I saw some beautiful 67+ Buffalo’s at the show this weekend and kind of wish I would’ve bought one of them.
66+
A very nice example, I'll go 66. Strike is pretty nice too.

Thanks to everyone for offering opinions. The spots were of no great concerns when in hand .
The coin is currently in a yellow ANACS 64 holder and feel like everyone else it is undergraded. I can see it as a 66 and would be profoundly disappointed if it didn’t upgrade to at least 65. The coin is a total luster bomb free of any meaningful hits and has a decent strike. It is a bit whiter than image portrays which usually isn’t my thing, but I find attractive in this instance. It is later die state but that should not impact grade and if anything adds some character for me.
