1918 Buffalo Nickel. MS-67 (PCGS).
An extraordinary condition rarity from the early Buffalo nickel series. Vividly toned in a blend of antique gold, champagne-apricot and powder blue iridescence, both sides are further adorned with intense satin luster. Boldly to sharply struck and virtually pristine, this coin is eagerly awaiting inclusion in a top-ranked Buffalo nickel set on the PCGS Registry. With a generous mintage of 32,086,314 pieces from the Philadelphia Mint, one might suspect that the 1918 is among the more readily obtainable nickels from its era. This is simply not true, for this issue is surprisingly scarce in the finer circulated and Mint Sate grades. Obviously attrition through circulation was uncommonly high, and the 1918 can be challenging to locate even in attractive Choice and Gem Uncirculated preservation. The coin offered here offers outstanding technical quality and eye appeal, and it represents a significant find for the astute Buffalo nickel enthusiast.
