Buffalo Nickels
1917 5C Two Feathers, FS-401, MS65 PCGS. This is sole finest Two Feathers 1917 Buffalo nickel that PCGS has attributed and one of only three pieces in Mint State at that service (6/17). The strike is sharp despite moderate erosion in the fields. Excessive die lapping on the obverse to remove clash marks (still partially visible at the Indian's throat) effaced the innermost feather. The frosty surfaces are well-preserved with delicate champagne toning.
