Description du lot

Sharply to fully struck with richly original surfaces, this warmly patinated example is dressed in multicolored iridescence of champagne-apricot and powder blue. As with so many mintmarked Buffalo nickel issues from the 1910s and 1920s, the 1920-D is typically encountered either well worn or in lower Mint State grades. Among the Mint State survivors poor striking quality and inferior luster are the rule, explaining the scarcity of attractive Choice and Gem Mint State quality examples such as that offered here.
