Boldly Struck, Premium Gem 1926-D Nickel

1926-D 5C MS66 PCGS. This premium Gem is nicely defined for such a notoriously weak issue. The 1926-D is one of the six most difficult strike rarities in the Buffalo nickel series. Most of the coins known of this issue are so weakly struck that they appear undesirable to many collectors. However, this piece is very sharply defined with strong detail at the top of the bison's head and a faint split in the tail. The surfaces are clean and problem-free with smooth, satiny luster, and a light amount of rose-champagne color on the reverse. A superior example of this elusive issue. Population: 19 in 66, 1 finer (9/04).(#3958) (Registry values: N4719)
