1937-D 5C MS67 认证号50128924, PCGS号3981

Designer: James Earle Fraser Content: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel Weight: 5.00 grams Diameter: 21.20 millimeters Edge: Plain Mint: Denver Production Strikes: 17,826,000 General Description: The Type II Buffalo nickel is similar to the Type I of 1913 except for the reverse. The Type II features a restyled area at the bottom of the reverse. The buffalo previously standing on raised ground is now on a line or plane. The inscription FIVE CENTS, earlier on the mound, is now in a recessed portion below the line, thus protecting it from wear. This style was produced from 1913 through the end of the Buffalo motif in 1938. (Source: Bowers, Q. David. “United States Coins by Design Types - An Action Guide for the Collector and Investor”. Edited and updated by Mike Sherman, PCGS CoinFacts) General Description: The 1937-D is a common Buffalo nickel in all grades. Only the 1937 and 1938-D are easier to find in mint state and Gem condition. Strike is usually very sharp and luster is typically quite frosty.

Yes, the 1937-D Nickel is a very common coin in most grades, but let's talk about condition rarity.  Thousands of examples of this date have been certified in MS64, MS65, and MS66 condition, but in MS67, the population drops off dramatically.  MS68 is where this date shines (literally).  In March of 2015, one of the two PCGS MS68 examples sold for an amazing $35,250, setting a new, remarkably high record for the date, and pretty much for any late-date Buffalo Nickel.
