Do you think I am over grading this Buffalo ??

[jgrinz]

as XF/AU or is that a little to much to describe it as on Ebay .. These are so tough to get right ...

I'd say it's more XF than AU.

I'd say that it is an EF-40. It's what I would call a "commercial AU." Some coins like this end up in AU-50 holders, but to me that's clear case of over grading. You need to have more luster, and the wear spots should not be quite so obvious.

id go with high xf i like it

A strict EF-40 if I were describing it.

Another vote for a solid EF40. Too much wear for AU. Grade it conservatively and let your pics do the speaking for your coin.

I think I take better pictures of coins by hand than by copy stand ... I hardly use it anymore

 

Thanks for the input

I'm not sure but I do like the looks of the coin!

Looks like a bit of wear on the hip bone and the Buffy's round steaks, plus I like to see a bit more definition in the "fly swatter" or the tip of the tail...so I'm in complete agreeance with XF-40

 

Nice Buffy!

I never really got the hang of grading buffaloes. To me, they are one of the hardest US series to grade.
