Orafino is an unincorporated community in Frontier County, Nebraska, in the United States.

History Orafino is derived from a Spanish name meaning "fine ore". This name Orafino was applied to the place when a settler found iron pyrite. A 1925 edition is available for download at University of Nebraska—Lincoln Digital Commons.

A post office was established at Orafino in 1880 and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1952.
