The 1921 Buffalo Nickel features a depiction of a Native American on the obverse, while the reverse showcases a bison, symbolizing American heritage. The coin has a face value of 5 cents (5c) and is sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and unique design. The 1921 edition is notable for its relatively lower mintage compared to other years, adding to its desirability among numismatists.
