Description: The 1937-D Buffalo Nickel "3 Legs" variety is one of the most famous errors in American numismatics. During die polishing at the Denver mint, one of the buffalo's legs was accidentally removed from the die, creating this distinctive variety. While the standard 1937-D had a mintage of over 17.8 million, only a small fraction were struck with this dramatically overly-polished die. This VF30 example displays honest wear consistent with the grade, with clear definition remaining on both the obverse and reverse. The surfaces show typical circulation marks but remain problem-free, with an attractive light gray patina. The diagnostic missing leg is clearly visible, making this an excellent representative of this popular variety. The eye appeal is strong for the assigned grade.
