Seldom Offered Gem Mint State 1918-S Nickel 1918-S Buffalo Nickel. MS-65 (PCGS). This 1918-S Buffalo nickel is an impressive strike and condition rarity that is sure to appeal to advanced Buffalo nickel enthusiasts. The detail is full overall; the central obverse high point and the bison's shoulder and tail on the reverse exhibit emerging to bold definition. The surfaces display softly frosted luster are as nice as would be expected for the assigned grade. Warmly toned with glints of pale reddish-gold to dominant blue-gray, this handsome piece will please even the most discerning bidder. Scarce even in the finer circulated grades, survivors of this 4,882,000-piece issue are rare in Mint State. Most Uncirculated examples are in lower grades through MS-64 due to below average surface preservation and, in particular, deficiencies with the strike. A highlight of the Buffalo nickel offerings from the Larry H. Miller cabinet, this coin will be a significant addition to another advanced collection of this popular 20th century series. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. PCGS Population: 38; 5 finer (MS-66 finest). PCGS# 3940. NGC ID: 22RK. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
