- Premium Gem 1913-S Buffalo Nickel Type II 1913-S Buffalo Nickel. Type II. MS-66+ (PCGS). A beautifully toned Gem Type II Buffalo nickel from the inaugural issue of the series. The surfaces are painted in a blend of magenta, powder blue, and gold iridescence, complemented by significant underlying luster. Nicely struck with complete shoulder and head details on the reverse, which are often far weaker than seen on this ultra-Gem specimen. Its mintage of just over 2.1 million pieces is the third lowest in the design type, 1913-1938. As noted in the Lange reference on the series (2nd Edition, 2000): "In all grades this date is scarcer than its D-Mint counterpart, particularly with a full date and LIBERTY. Choice pieces are scarce, Gems truly rare." This piece is among the most impressive survivors of the issue and just 6 examples have been certified fined by PCGS through MS-67+. PCGS Population: 3; 6 finer. PCGS# 3923. NGC ID: 22R3. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
