Conditionally Scarce 1918 Buffalo Nickel, Premium Gem

1918 5C MS66 PCGS. Wafts of red and orange intermingle across the surfaces of this impeccably preserved specimen. The devices are lightly frosted, and the fields exude splendid satiny luster. This issue is typically seen weakly struck, but this Premium Gem representative displays above-average sharpness. Despite its high mintage, the 1918 is exceptionally difficult to locate in higher Uncirculated grades. NGC has certified only three coins finer, and PCGS reports seven pieces finer (6/08). A conditionally scarce and appealing example. (Registry values: N2998)
