Lot Title: 1917-D AU and 1917-S MS-60.
Description: Mintmarked 1917 nickels comprise this lot, and both are sharply detailed. 1917-D displays nice, original surface quality and only very light wear. The 1917-S appears to be technically mint-state, but a profuse supply of the tiniest carbon flecks imaginable are strewn across the obverse, and there is what appears to be a corrosion spot next to the obverse rim at 8:00. Two coin lot.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $500.00
High Estimate: $600.00

1917-D NGC MS-62.
On several levels, this is an interesting 1917-D Buffalo nickel, and to begin with, the NGC grade of MS-62 seems a little conservative. Strike quality is marvelous, with full horn and tail visible on...
