Question for Buffalo nuts...3 1/2 Legger???

1936-D 3½ LEG
BUFFALO NICKEL ANACS EF-40

On the coin holder, 1936-D EF-40 Buffalo Nickel, but there is no mention of this date being a "3 1/2 leg" Buffalo...anyone ever hear of or see one of these. I'm not going to reveal the seller, reputable in my definition of a well established dealer.

    I own one, there are diagnostics to see if it is the real thing. Feel free to PM me, I will NOT reveal the coin.

    no pm function, so here is mine

    3 1/2 leg

    rear leg comes to a point, also mint mark is tilted about 3 degrees or so.

    Well knock me down with a feather...never knew this variety even exsisted. Guess to much emphasis on the 3 legged 37-D

    Thanks guys...ya learn something everyday, 5k for the 36-D I was questioning.

    I'd say 2.5k-3k for an EF-40, only if I saw the coin in hand. I have seen some coins that look similar over the years.
