Lot 3 Coins 1938-D Buffalo Nickel 75-25% Copper-Nickel Uncirculated,& 1902 Penny

Description: From coin study. com,,,,,The valuable 1938-D Buffalo nickel minted in Denver marked the end to the series. The "D" is located on the reverse under the buffalo. The value guide also separates values according Condition along with the Mints that produced the coin. A "D" is the mintmark used by the Denver mint. These two mints placed their mintmark on the reverse to the right of Monticello. The third mint to strike Jefferson nickels, Philadelphia, did not use a mintmark in 1938. 2. History from J Hernandez on the 1902 Indian Head penny,,,,1902 cents are also commonly pursued by non-coin collectors who want an example of this classic American coin. 1902 Indian Head cents were made in vast quantities to the tune of 87,374,000 pieces, with those being business strikes. In addition to the 85+ million business strikes, 2,018 proof specimens were made for numismatic purposes. These 1902 proof coins retail for $1,275 each in choice condition. James B. Longacre, who served as Chief Engraver at the US Mint from 1844 until his death in 1869, designed 1902 Indian Head pennies. Interestingly, the Indian Head pennies dont feature a Native American at all. In fact, the Indian on this penny is actually a Caucasian representative portrait of Miss Liberty, who in this case was modeled after Longacres daughter, Sarah. As a sidenote, Longacre also designed the U.S. two-cent piece, which in 1864 became the first coin to bear the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. Interesting US Postage stamps 3.
