Buffalo Nickels, officially known as the Indian Head Nickel, were produced by the United States Mint from 1913 to 1938. These coins feature a depiction of a Native American on the obverse and a buffalo on the reverse. The 5-cent coin minted in 1916 at the Philadelphia Mint is particularly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and the limited number produced. The Buffalo Nickel is known for its distinctive design elements and the high relief of the buffalo, making it a popular choice among numismatists.
