Additional Description: The 1913 Type 1 Buffalo Nickel is a classic United States five-cent coin and the first design of the Buffalo Nickel series, which ran from 1913 to 1938. Its obverse features a Native American profile, while the reverse depicts an American bison standing on a mound. Known as the “Type 1” because the original design had the buffalo on a raised mound (later flattened in Type 2), this coin is prized by collectors for its iconic imagery and historical representation of early 20th-century America.
