I wanted to share my PCDS MS69 4 1/2 Leg Variety! I believe this is the Highest Graded Buffalo yet....in addition to the variety. As others have done, I too bought this on eBay! Sorry for the photo but it is the best I have from the seller. Do you think it will cross? Is the variety TOO MINOR for it to be attributed? Thanks for your professional help, I need it!

    ROFL! You had me for a couple minutes. Like a knucklehead I'm looking around trying to figure out who the heck PCDS is? Then I noticed the well endowed Bison....haha

    Does anyone think it would cross at MS69? Do you think it is a real die variety or just a little die chip? Do you think the variety is too minor or will they attribute it? Should I send it to CONECA first?

    Thanks for your help!

    Anyone think it meets the MS69 standard or will it just be MS68? Maybe I will send it to Todd so he can use his macro lens to get a good close-up of the variety.

    This coin should MS68+ with no problem. Way too much going on for a MS69, unless you are "into that kind of thing".

    As a self-professed nickel collector, I do think that the grade is related to the hornyness of the coin. A half-horny buffalo will grade at least a Fine. A fully horny buffalo like yours definitely "rises" high into the MS range. There is definitely a premium associated with a fully horny buffalo like that one.

    Wow, that is certainly an interesting analysis...not one I would have come up with!

    Uh.

    I would be very careful where you put that coin.

    Could wake up one morning with a bunch of little buffaloes running all over the place.
