Description

1937-D Three-Legged Nickel
FS-901, Select Mint State

1937-D 5C Three-Legged, FS-901, MS63 NGC. CAC. Even casual collectors are aware of the '37-D Three-Legged nickel, one of the keys to a Guide Book collection of Buffalo nickel series. Breen (1988) blamed a "Mr. Young" for the lapped die mint error, though the identify of the oblivious mint worker is unconfirmed. The present Select example is much nicer than most survivors. Caramel-gold toning adorns lustrous, unblemished surfaces.
