1947 Jefferson Nickel INB Graded Slab Coin
Indian Head Buffalo Nickel International Numismatic Bureau INB Slabbed Holder
This listing features a classic United States copper-nickel Indian Head Buffalo Nickel, a cornerstone of American numismatic history. The coin is securely housed in a specialized International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slabbed holder, which includes a green label and a unique serial number for tracking and identification. This specific piece showcases the iconic James Earle Fraser design, featuring the profile of a Native American on the obverse and the American Bison on the reverse. The INB holder provides a protective environment to preserve the condition of this vintage circulation strike. As these coins were minted between 1913 and 1938, they are highly sought after by collectors looking to complete historical sets or own a piece of early 20th-century Americana.
1947 Jefferson Nickel INB Graded Slab
Condition: This 1947 Jefferson Nickel is housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) graded slab. The coin displays circulated characteristics with visible wear on the high points of Thomas Jefferson's portrait on the obverse and the Monticello building on the reverse. The metal content consists of a copper-nickel alloy, specifically 75% copper and 25% nickel. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this business strike coin represents the post-World War II era of American coinage, following the return to the standard copper-nickel composition after the wartime silver alloy years. The surfaces show typical toning and minor abrasions consistent with a coin that has seen moderate use in commerce before being encapsulated. While the slab label identifies the series as Early Jefferson Nickel 1938-1976, it does not specify a numeric grade.
