I recently purchased an attractive 34 Buff .


Not very long after I made that purchase I found another attractive 34.
Now I have two .


You guys might be getting tired of this, but here it goes....The question is which one do you find the most attractive and which one would you keep if you were going to sell one? Both pcgs 65 buffs.
Thanks again for your help, Joe

    I’d keep the first ones obverse and the seconds reverse !
    OK I guess the first , but they are close and it’s a tough choice

    That is a tough choice, but with your herd #2 would fit the best, then hide the other in my safe. lol

    I would keep the first - less tarnish... ;) Seriously, it seems to have a slightly better strike, giving it the edge on detail. Cheers, RickO

    Stikewise 2 is better. I like 1 because the obverse toning on 2 looks washed out a bit to me.

    My humble opinion.

    Thanks to all. Your responses are very much appreciated as I'm torn between these two. My thoughts are to thin my collection down but it seems to be a difficult task.
    Thanks a bunch and happy hunting, Joe

    Wow, that's a tough choice. I'd choose number one based on strike and luster.

    Joe, #1 is by far the better of the two visually. Much better luster (sp) IMHO

    Joe needs help with picking his Buffs?
    After NOT looking at the results of this thread #1 should be #1 in my book.

    Keep them all, Joe. Your herd is already as big as the whole Wild West. Keep it up my brother. You are legendary and a buffalo Indian head god.

    I love them both. The black spot under the T is distracting to me on number 1 but I still think I like it better.
