INB Graded Indian Head Buffalo Nickel 1913-1938
Condition: This item is housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) holder. The coin exhibits significant circulation wear, with a flattened profile on the Native American portrait and the buffalo. The date is worn smooth and is not visible, which is common for this series. The surfaces show a dull grey patina consistent with long-term use in commerce. The strike type is a standard business strike. It is composed of a copper-nickel alloy. The Buffalo Nickel, designed by James Earle Fraser, was minted between 1913 and 1938 and is celebrated for its quintessential American imagery, featuring a composite portrait of a Native American on the obverse and an American bison on the reverse. The mint mark is not identifiable due to the level of wear.
