1921 Buffalo Nickel, MS67
Lower Mintage, Conditionally Rare

1921 5C MS67 NGC. The Philadelphia Mint struck more than 60 million Buffalo nickels in both 1919 and 1920, but the 1921 production was only 10,663,000 pieces. The smaller mintage was likely due to the need to strike silver dollars in great quantity in 1921, to fulfill the Pittman Act. No nickels were struck at all in 1922. The 1921 is always available in typical Mint State, but the issue becomes undeniably scarce in MS67. This is a brilliant and highly lustrous Superb Gem with exemplary surfaces and exceptional eye appeal. Census: 27 in 67 (7 in 67+, 3 in 67 ), 2 finer (7/23).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22RT, PCGS# 3947, Greysheet# 3086)

Weight: 5.00 grams
