[Buffalo Head]

 

Last weekend I had to set my alarm and got up early to snipe this1916 Buff, I think I did the right thing. I ended up winning this piece for a hundred bucks, I'm very happy to say the least. Thanks for looking and comments are always welcome.....Joe

It's definitely worth getting up early for. As I commented across the street, the strike is the best I have seen on any Buffalo Nickel ever. I love it.

Thanks bud, If it weren't for the bottom of the first "1" in the date dropping off I would be inclined to think it was a proof coin.....Joe

The 1915 and 1916 you posted are from different hubs.

I'm a sucker for a good strike. I like this one.

The tail of the 16 looks similar to a proof issue. Fully separated.

 

Doesn't hurt that it from the "F" mint too!

Maybe we can get a FST designation goin'. Fully Separated Tail.

How about "FC" for bust coinage = "Full Cleavage"
