1913 Buffalo Nickel. Type I. FS-901. 3 1/2-Legged. MS-66 (PCGS). An important variety that we have become more familiar with only very recently, as this is the first 1913 Type I 3 1/2-Legged nickel that we can recall offering. These 3 1/2-Legged coins are the junior partners to the famous 37-D 3-Legged Buffalo. The 1913 Type I FS-901 is actually far rarer in numismatic circles, although it is not as well known as the 37-D 3-Legged. This is a high Condition Census offering for the former variety, and a breathtakingly beautiful premium Gem. Dusted with iridescent champagne-gold toning, the surfaces are lustrous, satiny, and readily reveal the finely textured finish of the Type I Buffalo nickel issues. Sure to see spirited bidding before finding its way into a top flight Buffalo nickel variety set on the PCGS Registry. PCGS# 38428. NGC ID: 22PW. PCGS Population (FS-901 attribution only): 2; with a single MS-66+ finer.
