Encased 1936 Buffalo Nickel: Memphis Coin Club 75th Anniversary: 2011

Description

For its 75th anniversary in 2011, the Memphis Coin Club commissioned the striking of encased 1936 Buffalo nickels to commemorate the event and the year of its founding, 1936. To qualify for encasement, all of the 1936 nickels had to have a strong full date. A quantity of these encasements are now available to collectors through eBay. As shown by the scan, the encasement for each piece is in pristine mint condition wheras the nickels will show wear typical of a full date Buffalo nickel. Collecting encased coins is a popular sub-specialty in exonumia. S
hipping is .50 to any USA address.  I combine invoices and shipping for multiple purchases.  This usually saves the buyer money.
