Hi all,
I just picked this up today, and would like to get a general concensus on the grade.
Let me say this:
1. It is holdered in one of the top 3 TPGers slabs.
2. It is holdered as a partial collar misaligned dies. (That probably gives away the TPGer.)
3. I am not a Buffalo person per se, nor an error collector per se but this seemed interesting.
4. To my eyes, it seemed undergraded....I will list the grade and pic of the slab later tonight.


If the pics aren't a help, I can retry them. I did an auto adjust on the 'puter and it seemed too dark, so these are what I have under 4 75 watt Reveals with no adjustment.
Thanks,
George

Anyways, looks uncir`d to me.
Hoard the keys.
....based on the photo there really is no luster and is rather lifeless. So I'd probably go MS62 barring any improvement in the photos.
BTW, the reason for the better strike is probably due to the off-center/misaligned dies...in fact, I'm almost sure that is the case.

Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner.
