1924-D Buffalo Nickel. MS-66 (PCGS).This is a very appealing upper end Gem with delicate powder blue and champagne-gold iridescence on both sides. The surfaces are lustrous with a smooth satin to softly frosted texture. An above average strike enhances this coins appeal, with most design elements fully rendered and the bisons head and central high points on both sides showing emerging to bold detail. The Denver Mint resumed production of nickels in 1924 after a four-year break. With most of the 5,258,000 coins entering circulation, the 1924-D is one of the scarcest Denver Mint Buffalo nickels in Mint State. Somewhat scarce even in the higher circulated states of preservation, 1924-D nickels were quite difficult to acquire until a small group from the Connecticut State Library were made available in the 1990s. Even so, Gem Mint State specimens remain as elusive as ever. This MS-66 is among the finest certified and sits at the very top of the PCGS Population Report</em>.PCGS# 3952. NGC ID: 22RY.
