1938 D/S (D Over S Mint Mark) Buffalo Nickel • Denver Mint Indian Head Overdate • Denver Mint • BU Brilliant Uncirculated Raw Ungraded Coin

One of the more prominent and popular over mint marks in the Buffalo Nickel series. .

The 1938-D/S Buffalo nickel is a variety where the Denver mintmark (D) was punched over a San Francisco (S) mintmark, even though no Buffalo nickels were actually struck at the San Francisco mint in 1938. This resulted from repurposing dies intended for San Francisco.
