- 1924-S Buffalo Nickel. MS-64 (PCGS). Handsome pearl-gray surfaces exhibit intermingled highlights of pale champagne-apricot and, on the reverse only, iridescent powder blue. The strike is suitably bold for a mintmarked nickel from the Roaring Twenties, and both sides are frosty and smooth in appearance. Just under one and a half million nickels were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1924 and immediately entered circulation, where they initially attracted little numismatic interest. By the time their scarcity became apparent, many had already served their duty in commerce. With one of the lowest mintages for the entire Buffalo series, the 1924-S nickel is among the most sought after dates in all grades. It is highly regarded as a strike rarity, as well, and finding specimens with sharp definition can be difficult. A well struck Choice Mint State survivor such as this is a desirable offering and is certain to be appreciated by Buffalo nickel enthusiasts. PCGS# 3953. NGC ID: 22RZ.
