Does a 1937 D/D Buffalo nickel exist?

hiijacker

I was looking at my 1937-d through a loop and there appears to be another D to the right. I looked at pcgs price guide but do not see such variety. There is a 1938 D/D but no 1937. I did a search on google and found this coin, but it is ICG and it did not sell.

So:

1) Does this exist?

2) What is this worth in an AU grade?

I don't know anything about the values of buffalo nickel die varieties, but I can say for sure there are at least nine different D/D RPMs for 1937D buffalo nickels. The PCGS price guide is probably one of the worst reference tools for die variety knowledge - it only lists the best known 2% of all die varieties, with no regard to the other 98%.

Yes, there are several 37-D/D RPM's, but PCGS does not officially recognize any of these at this time. Don't aske me why not.

I don't even collect buffalo nickels and I have one sitting in a drawer at home

Can someone tell me if this is still the case? I'm trying to find a listing of attributions on PCGS web site but can't find it? I have a very nice example of this coin currently in an SEGS holder as an MS66 RPM-1. I'd like to try to cross it but only if I can get the attribution. Coneca's marker is "Stage C: Heavy die crack through FIVE CENTS – LDS" and it definitly has that as well as a very strong D/D east. I guess my other question is it even worth dinking around with or should I just leave it in the SEGS holder?
Thanks

The answer is simple. If it is in the Cherrypicker's Guide they will attribute it.

Thanks fcloud and now that you said that I do remember that being the standard. I don't haven't bought the new CPG fourth edition volume two but will have to look into it. Thanks

.......hopefully it makes it into the NEXT edition of cherrypickers.

If they put every variety in the CPG it would be 5000 pages long and no other author could sell their own specialty book. IMHO.

.......good point. maybe better putting stuff worth more than a few bucks in would be a good idea.
