Description / 1937-D 3 LEGS Buffalo Nickel Type 2 5C NGC UNC Details
Unlock a significant piece of American numismatic history with the 1937-D 3 LEGS Buffalo Nickel Type 2 5C, now available in exquisite NGC UNC Details grade. Struck in Denver, this rare Buffalo Nickel features the notorious "Three-Legged" variety, a result of a minting error that has captivated collectors and historians alike.
This 1937-D 3 LEGS Buffalo Nickel is more than just a coin; it is a testament to the craftsmanship and unpredictability of early 20th-century minting processes. This variant arose from over-polishing of the dies, leading to the peculiar absence of the fourth leg on the buffalo’s front right side. Such rare occurrences contribute to its esteemed status within the numismatic community.
The coin boasts a captivating blend of natural patina, with nuanced shades of rich copper and subtle hints of nickel luster that dance across its surface. This allure is enhanced by the intricate details evident in its design—most notably, the proud depiction of the American bison on the reverse and the noble Native American profile on the obverse, encapsulating the spirit of a bygone era.
Suitable for both the seasoned collector seeking to deepen their numismatic portfolio, as well as a casual enthusiast keen to embark on a historical journey, the 1937-D 3 LEGS Buffalo Nickel occupies a singular place in both aesthetic appeal and historical significance. Secure this remarkable specimen today and own a tangible piece of United States coin heritage.
