Description
1917 MS67 Buffalo Nickel
Tied for Second Finest Certified
1917 5C MS67 NGC. With a mintage in excess of 51 million
pieces it is difficult to make a case for absolute rarity for the
1917 nickel. However, even though rolls were available until
recently there are surprisingly few examples that have been
certified in MS67 by the two major services. NGC has only graded
five other pieces with one finer, and PCGS has certified 10 in MS67
with two finer (4/10). This would make a superlative early type
coin. The surfaces have mint frost that rolls around the coin
unimpeded by abrasions, and each side displays light, attractive
rose and lilac toning. Also important for type-coin consideration,
the strike is complete on each side.From The Brenda John Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
