Item Number: mm_buffalo_1933
High grade MS-65, Normal over-strike.

The US Mint produced Indian Head Bison nickels from 1913 to 1938. However, no nickels were dated 1933.

Now available is this modern over-strike, the most exacting and faithful rendition available. Holding one in hand gives the viewer a true sense of what it would be like to own an original (had any actually been produced). And since these are over-struck on genuine coins, they have the correct weight (no metal is added or removed), correct metallic content, and correct diameter and edge type. All the over-strikes are privately and painstakingly performed using a surplus Denver Mint coin press.

NOTE: Defacing of US coins is legal so long as the defacement isn't for fraudulent purposes.

By purchasing one or more of these, the buyer agrees to provide full disclosure of their origin when reselling them. Failure to provide potential buyers with complete and accurate information when offering these could result in criminal and/or civil fraud charges. In other words, don't try to sell to unaware buyers as original coins of this date.

Since these are over-struck on existing coins, there may be faint evidence of the original coin design showing since the over-strike is usually not perfectly aligned with the original strike.

Do not attempt to use these as legal tender. This product is NOT endorsed or approved by the US Mint, US Treasury, or US Government.

These new oversrtike coins are talk of the town. More and more people are becoming Daniel Carr collectors. I really believe these American coins are alot more interesting to collect then the tokens,etc. Can't wait to see what is next. This has open up a whole new market to keep our interest in coin collecting. Thanks for your new ideas in the coin world.

Mr. Carr really steps production up a notch producing these Indian Head Nickels. The strike is absolutely perfect. It is as if I just received a fresh Buffalo Nickel straight from the Mint...and I guess I did. Beautiful work. Can't wait to see what is coming next...
