📖 Description
1913 Buffalo Nickel 5C Type 1 certified by PCGS as Genuine Cleaned-VF Detail, cert number 53076136.
This is the first-year Type 1 Buffalo nickel design, with the buffalo standing on a raised mound and the denomination FIVE CENTS placed on the mound below. The Type 1 reverse was used only briefly before the Mint modified the design by recessing the denomination area, creating the Type 2 issue later in 1913.
