1913-D Buffalo Nickel. Type II. MS-67+ (NGC). CAC.

An exceptional Superb Gem example of this challenging issue. The frosty and matte-like surfaces exhibit lively luster, sharply rendered devices, and are free of all but the lightest champagne-apricot iridescence. Most viewing angles, in fact, reveal a brilliant ice-white coin. These Type II branch mint nickels received much less contemporary attention than their Type I counterparts and as a result, those in exceptionally high grades, as here, are extremely difficult to locate. Choice, appealing and certain to be popular at bidding time, the importance of this coin for advanced Set Registry participants cannot be overstated.

PCGS# 3922. NGC ID: 22R2.
