Greysheet Catalog Details
The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Buffalo Nickels (Proof) series of Nickels in the U.S. Coins contains 2 distinct entries with CPG® values between $748.00 and $21,600.00.
The Buffalo nickel series began in 1913, at the tail end of the original era of proof manufacture at the United States Mint. Meanwhile, the series ended in 1938, just after the so-called modern proof era kicked off in 1936. This means most of the series saw no official proof production, but there are nevertheless several proof Buffalo nickel issues available.
The Buffalo nickel, designed by James Earle Fraser, features two major subtypes, both spawned during the first year of the series. In 1913, the Buffalo nickel was originally produced with the coin's namesake animal (actually a bison, not a 'buffalo' as commonly thought) standing on a mound. The mound was redefined at the bottom with a line to give the phrase "FIVE CENTS" a recessed area in which to sit. 1913 Buffalo nickels featuring the mound are referred to as Variety 1, while the subtype released later in 1913 and all pieces produced thereafter are called Variety 2.
Proofs exist of both 1913 Variety 1 and Variety 2 nickels, with the former scarcer than the latter. Proofs were also made in 1914, 1915, and 1916 before production of proof coinage was halted for two decades. When the United States Mint returned to making proof coinage for collectors in 1936, production of proof Buffalo nickels also resumed. The last proof Buffalo nickels were made in 1937. While Buffalo nickels were minted in 1938, none were made at the Philadelphia Mint, which is where proof coinage was also manufactured before the 1960s. Therefore, no proof Buffalo nickels were minted during the last year the series was in production in 1938.
