Popular 1937-D Three-Legged Nickel, MS62

1937-D 5C Three-Legged MS62 NGC. Distributed in Montana and discovered in the late 1930s, the 1937-D Buffalo nickel is one of the most famous error coins in American numismatics. The issue enjoys intense demand from error collectors and Buffalo nickel specialists alike. The present coin has a better than average strike for this issue, although the reverse demonstrates the softness of detail always seen, due to die erosion. The slightly granular obverse surface and some scattered handling marks probably limit the grade.(Registry values: N1793)
