1937-D Buffalo Nickel. 3 legs. NGC graded AU-58 FS-020.2. A fair degree of original luster still spins smoothly on the toned surfaces of this elusive mint error. The strike is typical in most areas, detailed enough to be desirable, but because it was struck from worn dies, not as crisp as on regular issue 1937-D nickels. Only the fore-hoof shows on the buffalo; the remainder of the lower leg was obliterated by repolishing of the dies after the dies clashed together.
Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,400.
