An exceptional example of this elusive Denver Mint issue. The surfaces are beautifully preserved, with satiny luster and only the most trivial marks, fewer than normally encountered for even this lofty grade. The strike is unusually bold, showing crisp definition in the Native American’s braid and the bison’s head and horn. Delicate golden and champagne highlights add to the coin’s visual appeal! The 1924-D is one of the scarcer Buffalo nickels in high grade, and this piece sits near the top of the condition census as just a single MS-66+ coin has graded finer at PCGS.
