or is it considered too high of a grade - it's a 20-D buff nickel. Trying to decide on a liquidation route.

Not a low ball collector here but seems to me they prefer the PO1's and FR2's but may use an AG3 as place holder until something better worse comes along.

I collect AG03s for some of the keys in my albums... just too spendy for nicer coins...
I love lowballs (mainly U.S. gold). I personally try to stay G4 or lower.
For silver lowballs, P1 and F2 are my sweet spot.

Buffalo nickels? Probably not. Too many of them.
A modern silver eagle or an Ike dollar? Yes. Today the following AG3 Kennedy closed at a pretty reasonable price:

And that Kennedy is already holdered and that can be half the battle

How can a Kennedy that looks like this sell one for that?
Low ballers typically lose out due to the nature of "low balling". I've tried to win by lowballing. I never saw coins as "lowball". Low ballers ( from my experience) are trying to collect higher graded coins for lower prices.
I like to think of the lower graded coins as "hole fillers for less ".
I might low ball key dates or semi key in lower grades ( but not to collect)
Collector turned dealer, so my views are skewed.
Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody.
AG03s are perfectly acceptable for hard to find / make coins.
Less so for hard to find / make.
Here's the coin and realized price:
I like them, tastes great, less filling
