Lot 1185
1917-D Buffalo Nickel. PCGS graded MS-65. Boldly struck and untoned. Among the more poorly defined issues in the series, this scintillating 1917-D example breaks that trend and displays uncommon sharpness on all the highest points of the design, including the buffalo's head, horn, shoulder area and split tail. Even the normal softness on the Indian's hair braid is nearly absent. Both sides are graced by resonating luster. There is one small mark in the frost of the buffalo's upper shoulder (PCGS # 3935) .
Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.
