For sale here is a lustrous 1915 Buffalo Nickel graded AU58 by NGC. What makes this early Buffalo specimen interesting is the pronounced copper stripe toning which appears on both sides. The obverse has one large stripe going diagonally through the middle of the Indian while the reverse has a few smaller stripes with a little bit of magenta and lavender mixed in. I'm not sure what causes this appearance - one theory that's been advanced is uneven mixing of the copper and nickel alloys in the planchet but in any case it definitely has a fascinating and unique look to it.

The price is $69 delivered. Paypal is ok. Please PM if interested.
