<B>1926-S 5C --Reverse Lamination--MS64 PCGS.</B></I> The reverse of this nickel displays a shallow, narrow lamination that runs diagonally from the rim to the bison's front legs, crossing the N in CENTS. The real story of this coin, however, is not its lamination; rather, this piece's prime attribute is its remarkable quality for a challenging issue. The 1926-S is one of the most famous branch mint Buffalo nickels, and unworn examples are particularly prized.<BR> This Choice piece displays subtle gold and blue-violet shadings over quicksilver surfaces. While the Indian's braid and the bison's shoulder display a touch of softness, the horn is sharp, an unusual feature for this often-weak S-mint date. Though a few wispy flaws on each side preclude a Gem designation, the overall visual appeal is strong, and this piece would make an excellent addition to a high-end date set. PCGS has graded just 11 finer examples (11/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James E.
