    I'm not sure of the grade and will guess a MS65, but it looks really nice.

    Wow that was fast!
    I'll say 64+
    Looks to have a few too many marks for 5 but the luster appears outstanding!

    I would hope it's properly attributed. That's the nicest one I've seen-might be the finest slabbed. I'd say at least a 65.

    <3 What a stud.....65+ ;) oops....I am late as well as wrong :#

  • BuffaloIronTailBuffaloIronTail Posts: 7,559 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Go figure. This coin's grade fooled a lot of us "seasoned" Buffnix peeps. In retrospect, there is a lot of chatter and a ding on Iron Tail's cheek.

    Kudo's to the commenter pointing out the "noise".

    Well...slightly late... though, from the picture, it sure looked like a 65..... Still a very nice Buff... Congratulations.. Cheers, RickO

  • ChrisH821ChrisH821 Posts: 6,803 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Man that luster should have pushed it to a + grade IMO. Are you sending it to CAC?

    Whatever the number (64 in this case) it is one clean coin.

  • koynekwestkoynekwest Posts: 10,048 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Sure looks better, Check the pops-it still might be the best one certified.

  • Type2Type2 Posts: 13,985 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Yes I did there is 4- in MS64 with this one, 1- in MS65 and 1-in MS66 That's ok I do very well on it when ever I sell. It was a good deal for both of us.



    Hoard the keys.
  • koynekwestkoynekwest Posts: 10,048 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I didn't realize there was a 66. I thought there MIGHT be a 65 or two. I never cherried anything better than an XF, and that was back when few people were looking for the 2 feather stuff. I actually started paying attention to them in the mid '60s after I saw them listed in the old Spadone "Variety and Oddity" book.

  • Type2Type2 Posts: 13,985 ✭✭✭✭✭

    It still amazes me all the Varieties that you can find out there. Yes I would love to see that MS66 as well.

    OK, I have to admit, what is a 'two feather'?

    When the obverse die is over-polished the lowest feather, the one the just peeks out behind the neck under the other two, is obliterated in the process leaving just the upper two.

    They're the obverse equivalent of the 3 and 3 1/2 legged varieties.

  • SmudgeSmudge Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Wow, even I get one right sometimes.

  • davewesendavewesen Posts: 6,712 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I was going to guess higher with that blazing luster (or nice lighting and picture), but blowing pic up see some nicks on the face and weakness of strike in hair above the braids. awesome coin and wish I would have found it, but I guess you work lots harder looking for stuff like this.

  • mannie graymannie gray Posts: 7,259 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I was going to say 64+ because they're tight right now.
    I think it's a 5 in 4 clothes.

  • ad4400ad4400 Posts: 2,176 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Yeh I see the nicks but that is a ton of blast for a 64
