Description

Choice 1937-D Buffalo Nickel
Prized Three-Legged Variety

1937-D 5C Three-Legged MS64 NGC. FS-901. The leading foreleg of the bison was inadvertently polished off the die used to strike this famous issue. The variety was recognized early as one of the most significant and valuable issues of the series. The present coin shows satiny mint luster under gold and aquamarine toning. The strike is decent, but a little softness is evident on the Indian's hair and the bison's shoulder.(Registry values: N2998)
