Lot Description

1920-S Buffalo Nickel. MS-64 (PCGS). Blushes of reddish-orange iridescence are more prevalent on the obverse, the surfaces lustrous and softly frosted in finish. Both sides are equally well struck for this challenging issue, although characteristic softness is still seen in isolated areas. While not as scarce as the 1920-D, the 1920-S still numbers among the more conditionally challenging issues of its type. With most survivors very poorly struck, as well, this attractive near-Gem is sure to catch the eye of discerning specialists. PCGS# 3946. NGC ID: 22RS. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
