Buffalo from an Angel

Gorgeous coin. I think I have seen it in-hand previously.

 

That wouldn't surprise me at all Tom. I'm happy you weren't in the market for one. ;)

When I was collecting Buffalos, I focused in the VF-EF grades....but when I see MS examples that look like that...the only word that comes to mind is "WOW"! Excellent strike, beautiful patina and begs for your eyes to just stare! Congrats!

I should have posted the grade earlier. It is PF67 in a PCGS holder.

It is an astoundingly beautiful coin, and the images are fantastic! I have bought a couple of small coins from Angel Dee's in the past. He does have a lot of great coins, and usually priced at a reasonable retail level.

Its so rare to get that textured look in the fields. Especially in the biz strikes, they always look smooth, but in reality they were supposed to have the rough look to it.

 

I just bought a 65, which I bought only because it has a little of that effect.

 

Thanks for sharing!

That sure fits it nicely with the rest of your set. I'm glad that it's filling in nicely. :golfclap: Congratulations on finding such a beautiful 1913!!!

Thanks for all the glowing comment on the coin as well as Andy. I thought he was very fair in his pricing as this coin is well above average in eye appeal and has a very good strike. Depending on how the lighting hit the coin, colors and strike would vary on different images. It was next to impossible to get one image that exhibits all the features this beauty has to offer. Maybe when they come up with a consumer 3-D camera.
