24k Gold-Accented 1935 Buffalo Nickel Set

Throughout the history of American coinage, the Buffalo Nickel stands out as one of the most distinctive coins ever created. Although it is best known for the American bison on the reverse, the coin is sometimes referred to as an "Indian Head" Nickel because of the profile of a Native American on the obverse. The work of renowned sculptor James Earl Fraser, this magnificent coin was a hit with thepublic for its all-American images that pay tribute to the "Old West.” Minted from 1913 to 1938, Buffalo Nickels were once plentiful, but over the last 100-plus years they've become increasingly hardto find. Today, the average coin connoisseur may have to visit a museum or a well-established private collection to view one of these numismatic treasures. American Mint proudly introduces this incredible set of two1935 buffalo nickels exquisitely accented in brilliant 24k gold!
