- Near-Gem 1926-S Buffalo Nickel
1926-S Buffalo Nickel. MS-64+ (PCGS). CAC.
An attractive and softly toned near-Gem, with tinges of champagne-pink iridescence adorning both sides. Satiny and lustrous throughout, featuring approval by CAC for premium quality at the assigned grade level.
Discounting only the overdates and varieties such as the 1918/7-D and 1916 Doubled Die Obverse, the 1926-S is the rarest Buffalo nickel in Mint State. It has the lowest mintage of any circulation strike delivery of the type with only 970,000 coins produced. Even low grade Uncirculated survivors are very scarce, while Gems are "nearly unknown" per David W. Lange (The Complete Guide to Buffalo Nickels, Second Edition, 2000). This superior near-Gem is an important and scarce offering, with just 18 coins certified finer by PCGS. An ideal example for the collector assembling a top notch Buffalo nickel set.
PCGS Population: 13; 18 finer (MS-65 finest).
CAC Population: 27; 5. The former total includes coins certified both MS-64 and MS-64+.
PCGS# 3959. NGC ID: 22S7.
