1923-S Buffalo Nickel, MS65+
Rare CAC-Endorsed Example

1923-S 5C MS65+ PCGS. CAC. The 1923-S Buffalo nickel is scarce in MS65, and finer pieces are rare. Yet, even fewer examples in this grade are objectively high-end for the MS65 designation. PCGS lists only a dozen pieces with a Plus designation, while NGC has endorsed only seven Gem examples plus only one that is finer. This lovely Registry candidate represents an important opportunity for the advanced collector. Smooth, luminous mint luster shimmers beneath a delicate golden hue on each side, and there are no contact marks to detract from the outstanding eye appeal. The finer design elements are slightly soft due to die wear, but the overall boldness of the design is pleasing. Population: 71 in 65 (12 in 65+), 5 finer. CAC: 7 in 65, 1 finer (10/20).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22RW, PCGS# 3950, Greysheet# 3123)

Weight: 5.00 grams
