Proof Buffalo Nickels
1916 5C PR65 PCGS. The mintage of 600 pieces was small to begin with, then reduced further when not all of the proofs were sold. Faint iridescence adds appeal to the largely untoned surfaces of this well-struck Gem. The strike is particularly sharp throughout the portrait. We note scattered, tiny carbon flecks that visit both sides. Population: 81 in 65 (1 in 65+), 140 finer (6/17).
