Description
1938-D 5C Buffalo Nickel, MS67. This exceptional 1938-D Buffalo nickel represents a significant find for the serious collector of this iconic series. Struck at the Denver Mint during the final decade of Buffalo nickel production, this piece exhibits the sharp striking characteristics and lustrous surfaces that define premium examples of the date and mint mark combination. Certified by NGC as MS67, this nickel displays outstanding eye appeal with well-preserved mint luster and minimal contact marks. The obverse showcases James Earle Fraser's distinctive Native American profile with crisp detail, while the reverse presents the American bison in excellent definition. The 1938-D is a key date in the Buffalo nickel series, particularly in higher grades where examples become increasingly scarce. This specimen's MS67 grade places it among the finest known examples, making it highly desirable for date and mint mark collectors pursuing complete sets. The combination of key date status, Denver Mint provenance, and exceptional preservation makes this an outstanding opportunity to acquire a premium example of this beloved American series.
