1931-S Buffalo Nickel (5c) OGH

A gold CAC sticker on an old green holder tells you everything about the quality of this 1931-S. Light champagne-gold patina blankets both sides, and the underlying satiny luster glows right through the original skin. The strike is good with nice braid detail and a well-defined bison, and the surfaces are ridiculously clean for the grade - clearly why CAC awarded the gold sticker. Fresh, wholesome, and loaded with eye appeal, this is a premium example of a popular better date.
