Indian Head Buffalo Nickel 1913-1938 INB Slabbed United States 5 Cent Coin
Condition: This coin is housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slab. The coin exhibits significant wear consistent with a circulated grade, where the date is no longer visible on the obverse. The surfaces show a dark grey patina with smoothing over the high points of the Native American profile and the American bison. As a business strike, this copper-nickel composition coin represents James Earle Fraser’s iconic design, which served as the United States five-cent piece from 1913 through 1938. The mint mark is not clearly visible due to wear on the reverse. The item is protected in a plastic holder with a serial numbered label.
