1926-D Buffalo Nickel Fine
The 1926 Buffalo nickel, struck at the Denver Mint, represents a classic era of American coinage. This five-cent piece showcases a design by James Earle Fraser that departs from traditional allegorical figures, opting instead for realistic representations of the American West. On the obverse, a detailed profile of a Native American face looks toward the right, accompanied by the year of issue. The reverse side of the coin features a magnificent American bison standing upon a raised mound. The Denver Mint's presence is marked by the letter D, positioned beneath the denomination. The inscriptions on this side include the issuing country, the national motto, and the face value of five cents, all integrated into the naturalistic scene.
