(Just kidding! Very nice NT Buff)
Interesting colours for a buffalo. Looks like some nice album toning.

Might of got a bump for "eye appeal" so I'll say MS-65. I think the hits on the buffaloes shoulder keep it under 66.

Thanks for sharing.
However, I'd be more surprised if it graded MS65 than I would if it graded MS67, as it might have gotten a 2 point bump in grade for the color
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

Love the toning. Don't understand the technical grade.

<< <i>I admittedly don't know squat about grading buffalos, but how can a coin be graded a 67 with that many hits and nicks on the buffalo's shoulder on the reverse???

It should not be if you ask me. It was bumped for the color and thats wrong!
IMO, the *market* should add or subtract for toning, bright white, or otherwise, not the grading company. It's supposed to be a techical grade, not an aesthetic one.
Why? Now you have a situation where the seller could say "Yeah, it's in a 67 holder, but look at that toning. It should bring 68/69 money" when in fact the coin already has received a multipoint bump for the toning.
(I'm not implying that the OP would do such a thing, but that it could happen when supposed technical grades already include bumps for color on some coins but not others).
Feh. I'll just stick with encapsulation for the sake of authenticity and coin protection. This whole point/registry mania is insane...

I also love the fact that the Buff I just sent in for my freebie CC submission seemed a technical equal . . . but not a visual one.
