This delightful premium Gem sports delicate golden iridescence and bright satin luster. The strike is above average for the issue with some emerging detail to the central high points on both sides, as well as the bisons head and tail on the reverse. Surface preservation is commensurate with the MS-65+ rating from PCGS. Underrated relative to the better known Buffalo nickel strike rarities such as the 1919-D, 1919-S, 1920-S, 1925-D and 1925-S, the 1927-D is very challenging to locate in sharply defined Gem Mint State. The present example is certainly far finer than the typically offered Uncirculated survivor, and it would make an impressive addition to the finest Buffalo nickel set.,PCGS# 3961. NGC ID: 22S9.,PCGS Population: 6; 5 finer (all MS-66).,
