Description
1926-S Buffalo Nickel, MS65
Beautifully Toned and Satiny
A Registry-Grade Rarity
1926-S 5C MS65 NGC. The 1926-S is Gem condition is among the
most challenging acquisitions in the Buffalo nickel series. The
date is occasionally available in grades through MS64, but that
population thins considerably in MS65. NGC reports only a dozen
pieces this fine, with three finer in MS66; PCGS lists 18 Gems with
none finer (11/23). Relatively few of these coins from either
grading service have made auction appearances in recent years, and
the last coin we handled finer than MS65 was a decade ago.This high-end example displays the usual satiny mint luster, bathed in warm peach-gold and lilac toning on each side. No metal flow appears in the fields, indicating an early die state, and while the devices are slightly soft in the centers, major details like the bison's horn and the Indian chief's feathers are well defined. Eye appeal is excellent. Census: 12 in 65 (2 in 65+), 3 finer (11/23).(Registry values: N7079)
