Lot Description

1916 Buffalo Nickel. FS-101. Doubled Die Obverse. AG-3 (NGC). An interesting silver gray example of this highly elusive variety, the surfaces otherwise smooth for the grade with just a few wispy handling marks in the center of the reverse. The date has been largely lost to circulation, but the FS-101 attribution is confirmed by doubling to the feathers at the back of the Native American's head. PCGS# 3931. NGC ID: 2TSS.
