1924-D Buffalo Nickel. MS-66 (NGC).Blended shades of golden-gray and pinkish-apricot iridescence accent the satiny surfaces of this Gem. The complexion is impressively composed under magnification and the eye appeal is superior for this challenging mintmarked issue.<p>The Denver Mint resumed production of nickels in 1924 after a four year break. With most of the 5,258,000 coins produced consumed by 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 NGC MS-66 is among the finest known and sits at the very top of the services <em>Census</em>.PCGS# 3952.
