Description

1929-S Nickel, MS65
FS-401, Two Feathers

1929-S 5C Two Feathers, FS-401, MS65 PCGS. This Two Feathers variety is omitted from the sixth edition of the Cherrypickers' Guide, but it remains popular with series specialists. Lapping to remove clash marks inadvertently effaced the feather immediately behind the Indian's neck, as on similar Buffalo nickel variants. A touch of softness occurs on the obverse high points, while the reverse is better-struck, especially on the bison's shoulder. Brilliant and softly frosted. From the #5 Current and All-Time Finest Buffalo Nickel PCGS Registry Set with Major Varieties. Population (for the FS-401 variety): 2 in 65, 0 finer (5/19).
From The Little Blue River Herd.
