The First-Year Type Set of Uncirculated Buffalo Nickels

The First-Year Type Set of Uncirculated Buffalo Nickels

$249
Payable in 3 monthly installments of $83

A pair of uncirculated coins showcasing the historic design change…

• Both versions of the 1913 Buffalo Nickel, the original “raised ground” and the new “recessed ground” variety made the very same year to correct a design defect.

• The masterpiece of legendary sculptor James Earle Fraser, this tribute to America’s unique Wild West heritage is widely considered one of America’s greatest coin designs.

• Soon after the original coin entered circulation, it was discovered that the words “FIVE CENTS” were wearing away too quickly — so the U.S. Mint moved quickly to redesign the coin and add a recess behind the denomination, resulting in two distinct first-year designs!

• The front portrait is based on Native American chiefs Two Moons, John Big Tree and Iron Tail; the back was modeled after Black Diamond, America’s most famous buffalo.

• Among the few with design details that remain intact, both coins are still in uncirculated condition, as they were when they left the U.S. Mint more than a century ago.

• Protectively encased in crystal-clear capsules, making it safe to examine every remarkable detail on both sides without fear of damage from dust, dirt and fingerprints.

• Accompanied by a deluxe wooden Display Chest, complete with a wooden insert that presents the historic coins at the perfect viewing angle.

• Comes with a Collector’s Guide detailing the fascinating history of the first-year Buffalo Nickel varieties.

• Guarantee of Satisfaction: Free returns for replacement or full refund.

Why do I pay for shipping and service on each installment?
We take the total cost of shipping and service and divide it by the number of installments so that each installment is the same amount. The shipping and service charge is the same whether you pay in full or in installments.
