0953- 1916-D Buffalo 5C NGC MS66
<Our item number 113912><B>1916-D Buffalo Nickel. NGC graded MS-66.</B> A hint of light gold toning. A nice strike. Similar to some of the other D-mint dates in this period, in grades up to and including MS-64, the 1916-D is a plentiful enough issue. However, in Gem Mint State 66 condition it is anything but, it is decidedly rare &#40;see the NGC census below&#41;. The present example is struck in the center with full force by the dies. The obverse and over the bison&#39;s head and shoulder on the reverse, all shows exceptional detail. The balance of the features also are suitably bold in detail, and we are even tempted to describe the overall appearance as remarkably sharp for the type. Rich full luster is more extensive on this than on many &#39;16-D nickels in Mint condition, with the surface tinged within light iridescence. There are no distinguishing blemishes to describe. Nor are there any carbon flecks, while the luster is both full and glowing. A collector would be foolish to fritter away endless hour s trying to locate a superior example of this outstanding specimen from the Denver Mint. <B>Pop 3; 1 finer in 66 Star.</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 3932&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;8,500-9,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 113912<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/113912.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/113912N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
