Description
1923-S Buffalo Nickel, Lightly Toned MS65+
Strike and Condition Rarity
1923-S 5C MS65+ PCGS. CAC. With a mintage of more than 6.1
million pieces, the 1923-S is always available in circulated
grades, but it becomes scarce when Uncirculated. Gem coins are very
scarce and Premium Gems are rare. Strike is always part of the
challenge -- the Bowers reference estimates just 40% of the coins
are sharply struck, and only 3% of survivors display full
details.This lustrous, high-end Gem hovers between a sharp and full strike. Slight weakness at RICA of AMERICA prevents full details, although all of the primary motifs are sharply rendered. The hair definition is excellent, the mintmark is sharp, as are the feather tips and date. The bison is bold front to back, top to bottom. Attractive shades of peach-gold and ice-blue provide dramatic eye appeal. CAC endorsed. Population: 5 in 65+, 3 finer. CAC: 11 in 65, 1 finer (6/17).(Registry values: N4719)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22RW, PCGS# 3950, Greysheet# 3123)
