1926-D Buffalo Nickel - Choose by Grade - Denver Mint - Low Mintage Date - 1926 D Nickel Indian Head 1926D

This listing is for one 1926-D Buffalo Nickel, as pictured. Choose by Grade / Condition. Photos are linked to the different options and will change when an option is selected.

Buffalo Nickels were produced from 1913 to 1938 and are notorious for their deteriorating design. Because the features, including the date, are high relief, the coins have worn quickly. Despite attempts by the Mint to adjust the design of the coin, they proved to strike indistinctly, and to be subject to wear quickly. The dates were easily worn away in circulation.

In 1938, after the expiration of the minimum 25-year period during which the design could not be replaced without congressional authorization, it was replaced by the Jefferson nickel, designed by Felix Schlag. Fraser's design is admired today, and has been used on commemorative coins and the gold American Buffalo series and buffalo Nickels with and without dates are used in belts, rings, wallets, and other pieces of jewelry and clothing.
