    Might squeak by problem free.

    Is it a two-feather?

    Or... missing part of the designer initials?

    Not a 2 Feather
    Perhaps a 3-1/2 leg?

    Images are a little blurry, but it looks like tons of other circulated Buffalo nickels I have seen in problem-free holders.

    May have been burnished to bring out the high points.

    All glory is fleeting.

    It's the 3-1/2 legger. Had is packaged up and ready to submit, then decided to double check. I'm gonna submit it. Thanks to all.

    I would guess it straight-grades.

    Nice 3 1/2 legger :smile: Looks a little dark in the fields, but I don't see anything that would equate to environmental damage. It would be a different story if there were pitting or obvious corrosion. Good luck with the submission!

    Looks OK to me, as far as potentially getting a straight grade. But who knows.

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
