1936-D 3 1/2 legs ... what are the other diagnostics and is this one?

Are there other diagnostics besides the leg? This one looks a little 3 and 1/2-ish?

    Sorry-not the variety. The real deal is nearly as weak as the '37-D. Here's what it looks like-

    And here is an image of the only known Mint state example of the variety.

    Ah, too bad. Are there any other diagnostics like the mint mark position or something I'm overlooking? Can't seem to find any data.

    Yes-it has a distinct MM placement. I can't think of any other die marker but the leg is weak enough none should be needed.

    Yep... the leg is really weak on the authentic 3 1/2 leggers....easy to spot. Cheers, RickO
