1938-D Buffalo Nickel (5c) White Label

This coin is all about the package. Yes, blazing satiny luster rolls across rich lemon-gold surfaces with subtle apricot highlight and this example has standout eye appeal. But the star of the show is the old NGC "white label" 2nd generation holder and its gold CAC sticker. The strike is strong and even, the fields are fresh and lively, and the overall look is wonderfully original. Clearly better than a 64, the quality is obvious at a glance - CAC clearly agreed. A delightful example for the coin, plastic, and sticker collector.
