1937 5C PR66 Certification #26971341, PCGS #3996

Owner's Comments

The 1937 Buffalo Nickel graded PR66 by PCGS is a highly desirable proof coin from the final year of the Buffalo nickel series. 1937 was the last year of the Buffalo nickel before the U.S. Mint transitioned to the Jefferson nickel in 1938. That makes this proof issue a historic capstone to one of America's most iconic coin designs.
