Lot 1116 - united states buffalo nickels - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 1914/3-S. FS-014.89. SEGS graded VF-30. In The Complete Guide to Buffalo Nickels, David Lange states that Tom DeLorey turned up the first example of this variety a year or so after the P-mint overdate was found back in 1996: "While the P-Mint coins are difficult to identify, the S-Mint edition is extremely so. The horizontal top of numeral 3 is just barely evident on even the sharpest, early-die-state specimens. … One feature that seems to be present on each 1914/3-S seen thus far is a die crack on its reverse." This is a well detailed example with moderate wear and a few scattered surfaces abrasions. Worthy of a close inspection by the interested bidder. Estimated Value $500 - 550.

Lot 1132 - united states buffalo nickels - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 1936. Satin. NGC graded Proof 68. In 1936, Proof Buffalo nickels were first produced with a satin finish, this being later revised to a brilliant finish due, in part, to complaints from the collecting public. While the former variety probably had a slightly higher original delivery, fewer examples were preserved over the years for the benefit of today's collectors. The 1936 Type I (Satin Finish) is particularly rare in the finest grades, and the present Superb Gem is simply a breathtaking coin to behold. Razor-sharp striking definition and seemingly flawless preservation are hallmarks of this Superb Proof Buffalo nickel. Light champagne and gold colors overlay both sides and further enhance the appearance of this memorable specimen. Pop 26; 2 finer in 68 Star. Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500.

Lot 1127 - united states buffalo nickels - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 1927-S. PCGS graded MS-65 PQ. CAC Approved. Intense cartwheel luster is enhanced with a lovely arrangement of pastel-blue, rose, and pale champagne-gold iridescence on both sides. The strike is particularly sharp for the date, with bold design details including sharp pelt and head details on the bison. About as attractive as can be found in an MS-65 PCGS holder, and certainly a worthwhile, semi-key nickel to purchase. Pop 26; 2 finer, 1 in 65+, 1 in 66. (PCGS # 3962) . Estimated Value $17,000 - 18,000. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 united states buffalo nickels	In order to view Prices please Login or Join
Lot 1122 - united states buffalo nickels - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 1923-S. PCGS graded MS-65 PQ. CAC Approved. Although possessed of a relatively low-mintage of 6.1 million pieces, examples of the 1923-S can be obtained with little waiting through the Choice BU numeric designations. That said, a Gem, like that in the present lot, is seldom seen on today's market, with most pieces kept from the full-Gem rating by striking incompleteness. We have no doubt that this piece, every bit the Gem, is destined for a premier set in the series. A highly attractive veneer of ice-blue, crimson, and antique-gold runs over the lustrous surfaces of this lovely Gem. The design elements are well impressed, including the date, mintmark, and bison's hair. Close inspection reveals no mentionable marks or spots. Pop 45; 5 finer, 2 in 65+, 3 in 66. (PCGS # 3950) . Estimated Value $7,500 - 8,000. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 united states buffalo nickels	In order to view Prices please Login or Join
Lot 1117 - united states buffalo nickels - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 1915. NGC graded Proof 68. CAC Approved. Proof Buffalo nickels were coined from 1913 to 1916 utilizing the Matte or Sandblast finish. This lot represents a spectacular Superb Gem example of the penultimate Buffalo nickel Matte proof issue, struck in the quantity of just 1,050 coins. Over the years, many of that number have been lost or spent resulting in a marked shortage of high quality specimens today. Few survive in such a pristine a state of preservation or with such remarkable eye appeal as this coin. The surfaces are contact-free and boast a razor-sharp strike, as expected of the Proof 68 grade assignment. More importantly, the center obverse displays remarkable ice-blue patina that complements brick-red and golden-brown rim accents. The reverse offers similar colors but somewhat more evenly intermingled. A few minor flecks appear below the bison's head but fail to detract from this wonderful, near-perfect example. An absolutely amazing Superb Proof Buffalo nickel which would be nearly impossible to improve upon. Pop 3; 1 finer in 69. Estimated Value $20,000-UP. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.

Satiny, barely toned surfaces with absolute full luster in the fields, and a trifle matte-like in appearance. The strike is well above average with minor softness only on the mintmark.

Pop 10; 4 finer in 67 (PCGS # 3971) . Estimated Value $2,400 - 2,500. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.

Lot 1123 - united states buffalo nickels - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #84 1925-D. PCGS graded MS-66. The 1925-D Buffalo nickel is one of the most difficult dates in the series to locate in well struck condition. David Lange, in The Complete Guide to Buffalo Nickels, writes: "Well struck examples may be found but are rare in all grades. Even Mint State coins may show little or no sign of the bison's horn, while very few have complete horns. Some 1925-D nickels are known with the E in FIVE filled, and all are characteristically weak in the first two numerals of the date." The Gem we present in this lot displays above average striking characteristics, but is not fully defined The horn is bold and pointed, and the digits of the date and all of the lettering are quite sharp. Only portions of the hair on the heads of the Indian and bison are a tad soft, but this is only a minor distraction. Finally, an attractive overlay of ice-blue, orange-gold, crimson-red, and lavender toning resides on the lustrous, well cared for surfaces. This piece ranks among the finest examples certified by both services. Pop 10; none finer at PCGS (PCGS # 3955) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 12,000. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.
