1921-S Buffalo Nickel, Multicolor MS65
Challenging S-Mint Issue in High Grade

1921-S 5C MS65 PCGS. This Gem 1921-S, besides being a conditionally rare key date in the series, should command a premium from toned Buffalo nickel enthusiasts. Dappled wine, gold, jade, orange, and purple areas embellish both sides, which show excellent preservation overall. Only a single horizontal tick on the cheek is worth mentioning, although it is not overt. The strike is reasonably sharp overall for a 1921-S, while showing some expected weakness at the horn and tail.
