1937 Proof-65 NGC. CAC.
Here is a coin that exceeds expectations for the assigned grade, at least in our opinion. The eye appeal is superb, and the satiny surfaces exhibit a blush of palest gold iridescence. Both sides flirt with a cameo designation, a rare occurrence for the date at NGC. The strike is bold and complete throughout, and the only marks of note are only visible with a loupe and amount to nothing more than some infinitesimal toning flecks in the reverse field. No Proof Buffalo nickels were struck in the terminal year of the series, 1938, as the Mint’s presses were making way for the new Jefferson design type and only Denver struck Fraser’s masterpiece for its final hurrah. Choice for the grade, exceptional, in fact, to the unaided eye, and certain to find a new home easily.

NGC Census: More than 1,300 Proof certification events have been registered as Proof-65 or finer; a group of 50 events at Proof-68 represents the finest for the date.
