Buffalo Nickel — Fraser’s American West

1913–1938 Buffalo Nickel

James Earle Fraser designed the Buffalo nickel (1913–1938) with a composite Native portrait and an American bison. Dates sit on a high point and wear away — “dateless” buffalos are common. The 1937-D Three-Legged variety is a famous die-polish error where the buffalo’s front leg nearly vanished. 📷 Wikimedia Commons · Buffalo nickel (public domain / free license) — Historical education · Dent Historian · Not a price guide or appraisal.
