1937 Buffalo Nickel, PR68
Exceptional Brilliant Surfaces

1937 5C PR68 NGC. Once proof production started again in 1936, Buffalo nickels appeared in this format for just two years. The first pieces coined in 1936 had a satin finish, while the balance of that year and all examples of 1937 had the brilliant finish seen here. This piece has remarkable surfaces with deeply mirrored fields and light cameo contrast. NGC Census: 93 in 68 (5 in 68+, 5 in 68 ), 0 finer (12/25).
Ex: Dallas Signature (Heritage, 11/2006), lot 432; Central States Signature (Heritage, 5/2023), lot 3701. (Registry values: N2998)
