1938-D/S Buffalo Nickel, MS68
Exceptional Guide Book Variety

1938-D/S 5C FS-511 MS68 NGC. While San Francisco struck no 1938-dated Buffalo nickels, Denver did, and several S-mint reverse dies had their mintmarks punched-over for use in Colorado. This is a stunning MS68 representative of the most prominent of the overmintmarks. Light yellow-green outer toning gives way to light blue and violet colors through the centers. Amazingly lustrous and a visual delight. Census: 6 in 68 (1 in 68 ), 0 finer (4/16).
From The Soquel Creek Collection.
