    Need a larger pic.
    At first glance I would say AU 50. on second glance flatness at hip could make for a lesser grade. horn looks full but i can not see it that well. need Larger clearer pic. please.

    I say AU50, too. I've been watching this coin. It's a nice example, but when I get a three-legger, I am going to want to buy it certified. There are a lot of fakes out there, although this example seems to have the right diagnostics (moth-eaten rear leg, and taking a piss).

    Agreed it appears genuine from the diagnostics, but from the wear, it strikes me as closer to XF-45 ... still a very nice coin. But, on this variety, get a slab or at least a return privilege ...

    I like the coin and probably see more of them than most as the coins came out here in Montana. XF45 at worst, my opinion.

    I think Cameron's pretty close, I've owned mine for years and it's probably fine-12 at best. Yours is much better condition than mine.

    I'm going to go against the consensus here, saying it's either a VF35 or EF40. The horn is full, but appears to be worn at the top, and the tip of the tail doesn't show. Regardless, it's a nice, problem-free coin.

    Seems to be a fair amount of wear on the buffalo. XF seems about right.

    I didnt bid on this one. The seller said it was an AU58, and as most said it wasn't slabed.

    Thank all for your help.

    IMHO, EF-45 (the obverse might be AU50, but the reverse is not there yet).

    I'm no nickel expert, but I'd grade it XF45.

    Best wishes,
