coinguy89 · July 26, 2004 9:40AM

Im gonna go with MS-64.

paulheep · July 26, 2004 9:50AM

My guess is MS65, obverse is a 66. Very impressive coin!

Paul

Caitlin,

I am going to say Ms-65.

Is this the coin you purchased as a 64 from a prior ANR and re-submitted? did it 5?

jim

very nice!

Amazing coin ... have to love any '20s branch mint with a strike like that ... 65 all day, a wonderful piece.

buffnut · July 26, 2004 12:04PM

From the 23s's I have seen this looks like a solid 66 to me. That strike is as full as it gets for a 23s!

Shamika · July 26, 2004 12:06PM

AU-50

Maybe AU-53 on a good day.

But that's a BIG maybe.

Shamika · July 26, 2004 12:08PM

That is one FUGLY Buffalo.

You guys are nuts!

Numismanic · July 26, 2004 12:09PM

MS64

Shamika · July 26, 2004 12:09PM

Somebody needs to take that thing out back and shoot it.

Shamika · July 26, 2004 12:11PM

On what basis do you insaniacs think this thing grades MS65 or MS66???

Shamika · July 26, 2004 1:15PM

relayer · July 26, 2004 1:20PM

65

GoYankees · July 26, 2004 2:25PM

MS66 Very, very nice!

Cam40 · July 26, 2004 3:34PM

66 all day long.
shot 7

wonderful coin.

GregTheGreat · July 26, 2004 4:57PM

Definitly 66... You might have a shot at a 67 but don't hold your breath.

BTW)There is no need to be taking a wonderful buffalo like this and defacing it... That is very unprofessional.

Elcontador · July 26, 2004 5:38PM

Nicest image of a 23S I've seen. I'd say a technical 4 due to the tick marks on the reverse, but probably got a bump to a 5 due to the eye appeal of the obverse.

ms70 · July 26, 2004 8:54PM

65

caitlin · July 27, 2004 6:55AM

Shamika is just mad at me because he was the under bidder on this coin, don't mind him I'm sure he'll get over it.

bennybravo · July 27, 2004 6:56AM

66 WTG!!!

Shamika · July 27, 2004 7:34AM

What is this, a conspiracy?

Coinerww · July 27, 2004 7:36AM

ms65

caitlin · July 27, 2004 9:12AM

OK I know you have all been waiting patiently, this coin was under graded an ms63.

It's a keeper.

MFH · July 27, 2004 12:44PM

Its undergraded IMHO. Then again I can't grade these worth a hoot. I thought it was a very solid 65.

Nice pick up.

jom · July 27, 2004 5:20PM

My ONLY guess as to why this was graded as MS63 would be the possible hairlines. I say possible as what I see as hairlines could very well be marks on the slab.

Nice coin, either way.

So, when are you going to sell it to me Caitin? heh

100proof1957 · July 27, 2004 5:28PM

as i know squat about buffs,i was gonna go AU because of the reverse.
my question is,should the strike really affect the MS grade ?
MS is MS !
it is Mint State,sorry we didnt strike it fully because we were lazy !

caitlin · July 27, 2004 8:41PM

The obverse is a solid 65 and the reverse is an ms63+ so PCGS should have given this slab at least an ms64 grade in my opinion.

dorkkarl · July 27, 2004 9:46PM

obv. looks ms-64 to me. but this is a very nice coin.

Elcontador · July 29, 2004 3:30AM

Caitlin, I agree with you re your analysis of the coin. You know more about this series than I do, but you rarely find 20's S mint Buffs with this kind of strike. Was this in an old green holder? If so, that may explain the MS 63 grade.

Shamika · July 29, 2004 3:50AM

I OWN IT NOW!

Bwahahahahahahahaha!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

23s buff guess the grade. Grades in
