Lot 1407
1926-S Buffalo Nickel. NGC graded MS-65 Star. Magnificent! Exquisite rainbow toning on both sides. An eye-poppingly beautiful, immaculately preserved, and lustrous Gem that has lovely mint bloom that seesaws with every angle. Where a collector might expect to see the usual deviation in the sharp relief (1926-S is typically soft), mainly in the centers of the coin where the design often failed to completely fill the dies, this standout MS65 takes the opposite road by being boldness personified! Watch the bidders take this on up as the tension mounts to the final "last call" of bidding! Only 970,000 coins minted. Pop 1; 1 finer in 66.
Estimated Value $45,000 - 50,000.
The Greenhill Collection.
