Buffalo Nickels, also known as Indian Head Nickels, were produced by the United States Mint from 1913 to 1938. The 1924 Buffalo Nickel minted in San Francisco (S mintmark) is particularly valuable among collectors due to its lower mintage compared to other years. This nickel features a Native American on the obverse and a buffalo on the reverse, symbolizing the American West. The 5-cent denomination has become a classic collectible, with the San Francisco mintmark denoting higher demand and greater rarity in the numismatic market.
