Description
1938-D 5C Buffalo Nickel, MS67 NGC. This exceptional 1938-D Buffalo nickel represents a premium example of this classic American series, graded MS67 by NGC (Certificate #8663670007). Struck at the Denver Mint during the final years of the Buffalo nickel's production run, this specimen exhibits the sharp striking detail and lustrous surfaces characteristic of the finest mint state examples. The 1938-D is a key date in the Buffalo nickel series, with relatively modest mintage compared to earlier years of the decade. In MS67 condition, this coin displays excellent eye appeal with well-preserved design elements and original mint luster. The obverse shows the profile of a Native American with strong relief, while the reverse features the iconic buffalo in striking detail. At this grade level, the coin represents a significant find for serious Buffalo nickel collectors seeking high-grade examples from the later years of production. Collectors of Buffalo nickels recognize the importance of quality examples from the 1930s, particularly from the Denver Mint. This MS67 specimen offers both numismatic significance and the visual appeal that discerning collectors seek for their collections.
