Lot Description

1918-S Buffalo Nickel. MS-64 (PCGS). This softly patinated example is dressed in intermingled dusky apricot and antique silver. The strike is typically soft in the centers for this challenging issue, but frosty luster is full and there are no blemishes of consequence. A fairly scarce San Francisco Mint issue in MS-64, as offered here, and obviously downright rare in MS-65 or finer. A splendid opportunity to obtain a desirable example of an early date and challenging Buffalo nickel. PCGS# 3940. NGC ID: 22RK. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
