Will the real MS65 1925 Buffalo stand up?

How about a thread comparing one specific coin graded at the same level? It obviously can be done at for any coin but there should be a sufficient following/interest to allow as many entries. Comparing the same grading service would be the best but offering another TPGs interpretation of same coin, same grade is okay. You also might want to include a raw coin that you view as the same grade.

Since I like Buffalos, let's start out with a 1925 in MS65. There's a suffcient supply and a nice price difference up or down (especially up) one tick.

Here's mine.

I just got this moved from an ANACS holder into an NGC MS65 holder. It's one of my favorite Buffs; I just love the shimmering finish common on the 1925s.
Comparatively, I'd say my coin has a more hammered reverse strike. The obverses are very comparable. Mine has a couple of dings in the hair above the knot, but the date appears to be a little stronger.

Here's a 1913-P T1 that is graded MS65 by NGC. Personally, I suspect it's a proof, but NGC thinks otherwise.

Dang Chris, you had to pull that pic out and torture me again with it. That is one spectacular buff! I'll trade you for it- I have this bag of magical beans...

Every coin I've ever owned is negotiable.
