Unattributed D/D to boot ... slab likely dates to early 1990s.

Looks like 2nd Gen Holder

Can't be completely sure though... you can tell if it has the alignment pins...

Looks like either a PCGS 2 or PCGS 2.5 The label appears to have a perferated border So it would have to be before PCGS 3.5 (All varieties 3.5 and later use die cut labels with smooth edges.) It has a barcode so it isn't PCGS 1, and it doesn't have the Doilie pattern so it isn't PCGS 3. I lean toward PCGS 2 because I don't see a PCGS at the top center of the label but it could be missing due to the cropping of the picture. If it is there, then it is a PCGS 2.5 Either way it dates to late 1989.

Looks like a solid MS-65 also!

Too bad it isn't a D/S and worth even more money.

Is it just me, or is that luster blazing? Most Buffs I see don't look like that.

Nice looking coin but D/D 1938-D buffaloes are very common. There are several D/D repunched mint mark variations from that year.

merc beat me to the punch. most of the D/D's are common, can you tell which it is?? still a nice blazer. i remember finding XF/AU Buffalo's in change during my early collecting in 1964-5. i often wondered if they purged the vaults when they cleaned out all the Morgans for GSA Holiday.

The 1938-D is one that frequently comes with outstanding luster.

Geesh, you friggin' realists know how to take the fun out of thread. Yeah, the D/D has several varieties and is not a great rarity. Yeah, the '38-Ds tend to come with nice luster. Happy holidays to you, as well ...

Russ · December 21, 2004 2:27AM

Well, RGL, we all know you probably sniped it for lunch money.

Interesting. I learn stuff here all the time.

Easy 66 upgrade

I was just threatened with life and limb if I crack it ... from a PMer who states it is a PCGS 2 slab from 1989 and becoming darn scarce ... Thanks for the comments!
