1913 Buffalo Nickel. Type II. Proof-67 (PCGS). CAC.A gorgeous Superb Gem, both sides are bathed in a blend of iridescent multicolored toning. Direct lighting calls forth shades of antique gold, powder blue, lilac and pinkish-apricot -- very attractive. Fully struck with a lively satin finish from the dies. From a mintage of 1,514 pieces, survivors of which are the rarest Proof Buffalo nickels after only those from the 1916 issue. Obviously most contemporary collectors acquired a Type I example for their first year Proof Buffalo nickel acquisition, their disenchantment with the satin finish of these coins further explaining why comparatively few examples of the Type II issue were preserved.From the Mille Miglia Collection.
