Here is another piece that I've had for many years that lacked a proper image until now. Thanks again to Crazyhounddog for the fine photo work. This one has a wonderful strike, some nice underlying colors and a huge originality allure. Picked it up on my one venture to Winter FUN, which stood out for a number of personal reasons, the ice in puddles in Orlando, and the chance to meet Walkerguy21 in person.

Comments welcome and GTG if so inclined.

    Nice Buff... I find it interesting when the obverse shows more wear than the reverse..... The Buff is nicely defined on this one... Cheers, RickO

    Love this coin! I see it as a 63+, but wouldn't mind seeing it as a 64, or depending on when it hit the graders, could be as low as a 63.

    Always buying and looking for a deal.

    I think 64.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    Wouldn't be shocked if it's MS 65.

    I'd say MS64, but like someone else said, a 65 wouldn't surprise me - that color is wonderful and gives it gem appeal!

    PS - glad to see that I made your Winter FUN highlight, ad!!

    The grade is below. I have considered upgrading many times over the years, but every time I view my piece against a potential upgrade, I decide to stick with what I have, meaning that I like it every bit as much and more than just about any 64 I've seen. Huge jump to 65 which isn't my sandlot.

    Knowing your eye and experience with nice buffs, ad, if you feel it's undergraded as a 63, then I feel vindicated guessing 64 shot 65.

    After seeing this beautiful Buff in hand, I can tell you first hand :) that I promise you with an ironclad guarantee that no one in the coin collecting world would complain one bit if this Buff was in a 64 holder. Guaranteed!!

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
