Buffalo Nickels, also known as Indian Head Nickels, were minted in the United States from 1913 to 1938. The 5-cent coin features a Native American on the obverse and a buffalo on the reverse. The Denver mint produced a notable issue in 1938, which is significant due to its status as the last year of production for this iconic design. Collectors seek out Buffalo Nickels for their historical value and unique artistry. Coins from the Denver mint are specifically identified by a "D" mintmark, which adds to their collectibility.
