I sold the most beautiful 1926 Buff I've ever seen to a collector who made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Since that sale I've been on the hunt for another one to replace the BIG hole. After about a year and two purchases I found this one. This is a pcgs with a high grade and CAC stickered. This coin has more luster than a just about any other Buff I've laid my eyes on. So, tell me your thoughts on this one. Thanks for looking....Joe

This is another I picked up raw and was hoping for a higher grade than the wimpy one assigned. As far as I'm concerned this coin is over the top beautiful. This coin has a better strike than the coin above, no question about that. It's the luster that carried the top coin to a 1 1/2 point higher grade than the bottom coin.

No question, IMHO, the blue buff is a far superior coin to the golden buff, even in strike and especially dripping with lustre. Congrats Joe, on an absolutely beautiful coin.

Nicely put Kurtdog!! I love that blue Buffalo, it looks like a diamond scintillating in the light.

Joe, the luster on that blue monster is off the chart. I feel like I could dive into it. You won't find too many '26's much better, although you came close with the gold. As usual, nothing but the best for Joe. (worship) (worship) (worship) (worship)

I'm going to have to go againt the flow Joe.

 

The luster on the top coin if better than fine, but the spots are just a crime.

I like the bottom one the best and it's not just for jest! :roflmao:

Strikes look comparable to me on both coins. The bottom one has a very nice golden color but, if given the choice, I like the awesome booming luster of that top coin and I am not bothered by those tiny spots, at all, that's just a little bit of really nice NT russet color. :thumbsup:
