1920-S Buffalo Nickel. MS-65 (PCGS).This important strike and condition rarity is sure to see spirited bidding when it crosses the auction block. Satiny surfaces are vividly toned in pretty pinkish-gold iridescence. Quite well defined for the issue, both sides are overall sharp with the bisons head near-fully detailed. The coin is as nice as would be expected for the assigned grade; it is a lovely Gem that is sure to please discerning specialists. Although not as rare as the 1920-D in circulated grades, the 1920-S is a leading condition rarity in the Buffalo nickel series. Even low end Mint State coins with poor striking detail can be elusive in todays market. In crisply impressed Gem Mint State, the present example is very rare indeed and would serve with distinction in even the finest Buffalo nickel set.PCGS Population: 29; 3 finer (MS-66 finest).
