Had a nice little grouping show up today. While I have nice graded examples of all these dates, I suspected something was hiding in subpar images (albeit that mine are mere iPhone pics with coins balanced on my leg). These may ultimately get submitted, so what grades do you think they pull?

    Yes, super nice, they appear to have been at home in those 2X2. for a very long time. Especially the 37.

    No kidding. The price marked on the 35-d was $7.50 :o

    A single collector shouldn't be allowed to own so many beautiful coins!

    To my eyes the 1938-D has evidence of laminations on the obverse in the Indians hair.

    It's been a long time since I graded one of these, but I'll guess 65, 67, 66.

    nice buffalo's :)

    63,66,65

    The MS-63 1935-D: Poor strike, mostly reverse. Poorly rendered LIBERTY obverse with hardly any knot detail.

    The other two are gems or better. Real nice, and I usually under grade.

    I grade them all beautiful. Your Buffalo nickel collection is always a delight to behold.
    Nice pick ups my friend.

    I'm guessing 64+ on the 35-D (weak strikes are common for 35-D's), 66+ on the 37-P, and 67 on the 38-D (assuming those are not scratches on the Buffalo's back below E PLURIBUS UNUM). They all have great color.
