Collectors prize this variety for its uniqueness and the precision required to identify it. In MS-66 condition, this coin is a top-grade example of this rare error, making it a centerpiece for any collection. 2. 1938-D/D Name: 1938-D/D Buffalo NickelMint: DenverGrade: MS-66 (Mint State 66)PCGS Certification: 93984.66/37374745 Variety: This coin features a repunched mint mark (RPM) where the "D" mint mark was struck twice, creating a visually distinct doubled appearance. This variety is rare and sought after, particularly in high grades like MS-66. The doubled "D" error is a fascinating glimpse into the minting process and the challenges faced by the Denver Mint in the late 1930s.3. 1938-D/S Name: 1938-D/S Buffalo NickelMint: Denver with an "S" mint mark originally placed and then overstruck with a "D" mint mark (D/S)Grade: MS-65 (Mint State 65)PCGS Certification: 3985.65/48714370 Variety: The D/S variety is a highly sought-after mint error where a Denver "D" mint mark was struck over an original San Francisco "S" mint mark. This overpunched mint mark is rarer than the standard D/D variety and represents a fascinating aspect of minting history. Coins with such errors often become the highlight of specialized collections, and the MS-65 grade ensures this coin is among the best-preserved examples available. Historical Significance of the 1938-D Buffalo Nickels The 1938-D Buffalo Nickel marks the end of an era in American coinage, as it was the final year that the iconic Buffalo Nickel was minted. This series, officially known as the Indian Head Nickel, was introduced in 1913 and ran until 1938. Designed by sculptor James Earle Fraser, the Buffalo Nickel is renowned for its depiction of a Native American chief on the obverse and a majestic American bison on the reverse. These coins are beloved by collectors for their artistic design, historical significance, and the window they provide into early 20th-century America. Rarity and Desirability What makes the 1938-D Buffalo Nickel particularly special is that it was produced only at the Denver Mint, with a relatively small mintage of 7,020,000 coins. Given the historical importance of this final-year issue, the 1938-D is highly sought after by collectors. However, what truly elevates the set offered here is the inclusion of three distinct and rare mint error varieties, all of which are in exceptional Mint State condition and PCGS certified. A Collector's Dream: Why This Set is So Unusual Assembling a set of three distinct and rare varieties of the 1938-D Buffalo Nickel is an extraordinary achievement, particularly in such high grades. The combination of the final-year issue, the minting errors, and the pristine Mint State condition of these coins makes this set exceptionally desirable for serious collectors. The fact that all three coins are PCGS certified adds an additional layer of trust and authenticity, ensuring that these coins are accurately graded and well-preserved. The 1938-D Buffalo Nickel is already a key date for collectors, but this set goes beyond the ordinary by offering three rare varieties that highlight the quirks and challenges of early 20th-century minting. Whether you're a seasoned collector looking to complete a set, or an investor seeking coins with a strong historical narrative, this offering is a rare opportunity to acquire coins that are both beautiful and historically significant. The Mint State condition and PCGS certification of each coin further enhance their desirability and value. Don't miss out on the chance to own this remarkable set, a true gem in the world of numismatics!
