Better date buffalo nickel

[mountainman 2]

Finished up $40 in nickels after work early this morning. A dateless buffalo, a 45-D war nickel, and a few foreign coins. Then this 1917-S showed up in the 2nd to last roll. Lower mintage nickel and tough to find without the date worn off. Thanks for looking, MM2

mm, great find. I love finding buffalo's. Early mint marked buffalo's are exceptionally hard to come by. Nice work my friend.

Do you think this would make the G-4 grade? Some details would indicate it would but the partial date concerns me.

Might still make a G4 or G6.
I've seen 1918/7 Ds with only the 8/7 barely visible in G4 holders.
Really neat find!
