Delicately Toned 1937 Buffalo Nickel, MS68

1937 5C MS68 NGC. As befits the high mintage of 79.4 million pieces, this is one of the most available dates in the Buffalo nickel series. Although NGC and PCGS have certified thousands of examples in MS65 and MS66, about 650 are graded MS67. In the lofty grade of MS68, however, NGC and PCGS have combined for just 10 coins, with none finer. This specimen displays delicate iridescent ice-blue, gold-beige, and lilac patina over pristine surfaces that exhibit dazzling luster. Boldly detailed with immense visual appeal. Census: 6 in 68, 0 finer (6/10).
