1938-D Buffalo Nickel PCGS MS67+		SOLD

This an amazing example of the very popular Buffalo Nickel. This 1938-D Buffalo Nickel has been graded MS67+ by PCGS and is encapsulated in the newer-style edge-view holder. This nickel has so much original mint luster that photographing the coin and properly lighting the piece was extraordinarily difficult. The well-struck coin also has beautiful light toning. The color is mostly a light steel blue color with golden-orange toning around the rims, particularly on the reverse. The surfaces are virtually perfect with almost no marks of any sort visible without magnification, and even then only a couple of very minor tick marks can be discovered. Although the 1938-D Buffalo Nickel is one of the more common dates to find in nice mint state condition, it is not exactly a common coin in an ultra-high grade like MS67+. Only ten (10) examples of the date have been graded higher at MS68 by PCGS and each of those examples will cost well over $15,000 today for that extra half-point grade. A superb example of this final year of issue of the type that would be extremely difficult to beat for the price.
