1920 Buffalo Nickel
Struck on Copper Planchet
NGC AU 55


CLICK HERE TO READ THE FEATURED COIN WORLD ARTICLE


This Discovery Coin is a 1920 Buffalo Nickel struck on a full size copper planchet of the same diameter, thickness and weight of a Buffalo Nickel!! Its composition is 89% CU, 8% ZN and 3% SN. The weight is 4.96 grams which is 76.54 grains. This unique Off-Metal Buffalo Nickel is unreported in Breen, Judd and Pollock.

Buffalo Nickels struck on Cent Planchets are very scarce. Buffalo Nickels struck on Dime Planchets are extremely rare. This is the first and only reported Buffalo Nickel struck on a Full Size Copper Planchet. Type Coin Mint Errors have been undervalued for over 20 years and have just started to realize their true value.

This piece was originally in the Mike Chambers' world famous collection of U.S. Off-Metal Mint Errors. It was sold to a well known East Coast dealer, who specializes in Patterns, exotic coins and other rarities. He submitted it to NGC for authentication, and upon certification I immediately purchased it.

We also purchase many different types of errors, and in many price ranges too. We also buy expensive world errors in gold and silver. We prefer ANACS, the #1 major grading and authentication service for major mint errors. We will buy ANACS major mint errors sight-unseen. We also buy many PCGS and NGC errors, as well as collections, accumulations and raw errors. Call us and offer your errors today! Major mint errors continue to be the hottest segment of Numismatics. With certification and authentication now available from ANACS, PCGS and NGC, more dealers and collectors are purchasing mint errors. The internet has expanded the collector base as well, since it's so easy to scan and e-mail a photo of an error, whether you are buying or selling. The collector market base continues to expand with thousands of people eagerly adding mint errors to their collections.
