THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />

LOT 89<br />

5C 1938-D BUFFALO. PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />

Everything about this high end SUPERB GEM is exceptional! A<br />

strong luster sets the beautiful toning aflame giving this sharply<br />

struck coin an incredible eye appeal!<br />

PCGS 2039, NGC 2569, CAC 198. In MS67+, PCGS has graded<br />

122, and NGC 32. The last PCGS MS67+ CAC sold for $960 in our<br />

May 2018 <strong>Regency</strong> sale and one sold for $1,410 (2017 ANA). There<br />

are only 33 coins graded finer and this coin has a very high end look<br />

and will not bust the budget--sounds like a great combination!<br />

PCGS# 3984 | ESTIMATE: $900+<br />

LOT 90<br />

5C 1938-D BUFFALO.<br />

PCGS MS68<br />

A beautifully toned and<br />

highly lustrous SUPERB<br />

GEM example of this final<br />

Buffalo nickel date. This<br />

beauty sat unmolested since<br />

it left the mint and was<br />

able to acquire magnificent<br />

rim toning. Shades of<br />

rose, gold, icy-blue blend<br />

magnificently over the<br />

highly lustrous surfaces.<br />

Nicely struck up in the<br />

centers, the eye appeal is<br />

very high end. While not a<br />

rare date, it is certainly rare<br />

in this lofty state of preservation.<br />

PCGS 31, NGC 22. There are only two coins graded finer, both MS68+. The current PCGS value is listed at $7,500 and we sold<br />

one in October 2017 for $12,338 and one in December 2017 for $8,813. A great coin for type collectors or worthy of a superb set of<br />

Buffalo nickels.<br />

PCGS# 3984 | ESTIMATE: $6,500+<br />

LOT 91<br />

5C 1914 PCGS PR66 CAC<br />

We’ve actually seen several pieces graded higher that don’t look<br />

anywhere near as good as this! Superior, undipped, full matte surfaces<br />

are clean and have a bold luster. A faint, original, spotless nickel, rose,<br />

sky blue, and rich gold color is evenly spread all over. Every detail is<br />

pinpoint sharp and the eye appeal is fabulous.<br />

PCGS 154, NGC 120, CAC 48. The last one to sell realized $1,800<br />

in the 2018 ANA auction. Another example sold in March 2018 for<br />

$2,040. The current PCGS Price Guide is listed at $2,750. With this<br />

GEM’s great look, we can see it bringing close to that figure! We truly<br />

love Proof Buffalo nickels, they do make a great short set to collect!<br />

PCGS# 3991 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+<br />
