U.S. Buffalo Nickel Hand Cut Coin Necklace (Front)

Wear a piece of American history with this U.S. Buffalo Nickel Hand Cut Coin Necklace (Front). Each pendant is carefully hand cut from an authentic U.S. Buffalo Nickel dated from 1913–1938, revealing the iconic Native American profile featured on the coin’s obverse.

This distinctive handmade coin necklace combines vintage character with everyday style. Choose between an 18-inch stainless steel chain or snake chain, then select a classic patina finish or a striking 24k gold-plated finish. Because every Buffalo Nickel is genuine and individually crafted, each necklace has its own date, details, and timeworn character.

The Buffalo Nickel—also known as the Indian Head Nickel—was designed by sculptor James Earle Fraser and minted by the United States from 1913 through 1938. Its front displays a Native American profile, while the reverse features an American bison. Fraser created the design as a distinctly American interpretation of the country’s western heritage, making this historic coin an enduring symbol of American artistry and identity.

Whether you’re looking for a meaningful gift, a conversation-starting statement piece, or a unique addition to a Western, rustic, or vintage jewelry collection, this Buffalo Nickel pendant necklace brings history into modern wear.
