Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses
It is an old thread, but it did take 3 1/2 years to correct it. -
Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses
Judging from the mintmark positions on the two coins, those are 2 different dies. Pete -
Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses
The 3 1/2 legged picture is not the same die as the 3 legged buffalo for 1937-D. -
Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses
But the "pissing buffalo" and the moth-eaten hind leg are still there. @BUFFNIXX, does PCGS still consider the "3 1/2 Legger" a 3 Legs Buffalo? -
Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses

Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses

1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses
Here are two different die states of the 37d 3 legged buffalo nickel. earlier die state should be called 3 and one half legged because part of the leg still shows.... but on the later die state call it the three legged cause the leg is completely gone. -
Re: 1937d 3 legged and 3 and 1/2 legged buffalo reverses
The '36-D "3 & 1/2 leg" is a rare one. But of course the '37-D 3-legger is better known. I don't have an example of either, but if looking to buy, I'd want the '37-D, and hope to cherrypick the '36-D. :smile: -
