Description
Desirable MS64 1926-S Nickel
1926-S 5C MS64 PCGS. In his December 7, 2004 "Item of the Week" column for Numismatic News, Paul M. Green comments on the minor paradoxes of the 1926-S nickel, particularly that it "... is not an especially tough date. It probably should be tougher when you consider the fact that it had a mintage of 970,000, which makes it the lowest-mintage regular-date Buffalo nickel."Later, however, Green acknowledges that the issue "... has become an enormously important Buffalo nickel in top grades." This appealing near-Gem offers quicksilver luster beneath deep rose, olive, and dusky gold toning. It is well-defined for the date with few overt marks. PCGS has graded just 11 coins finer (3/09).
