1914-S Buffalo Nickel Good
The 1914-S Buffalo Nickel represents a fascinating moment in United States coinage, showcasing a distinctly American aesthetic. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this copper-nickel five-cent piece carries the subtle "S" mint mark on its reverse. Despite showing the honest wear of a coin graded in Good condition, the strength of its original artistic vision remains unmistakable. On the obverse, the powerful profile of an American Indian faces right, a composite portrait created by designer James Earle Fraser. The year 1914 is clearly visible at the lower left of the portrait. The reverse features a magnificent American bison standing atop a raised mound, a design element that defined the early years of this celebrated series. Above the bison, the Latin motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" is inscribed, while the denomination "FIVE CENTS" anchors the bottom of the design.
