1936-D Buffalo Nickel (5c) 3 1/2 Legs

This ANACS F12 example of the scarce and lesser-known 36-D "3 1/2 legs" variety shows exactly what you'd want in a mid-grade Buffalo - honest wear with no problems. The surfaces display a pleasing, even brown patina that speaks to decades of natural aging. Both the Indian's profile and the buffalo retain solid detail despite the circulation, with the date and mintmark remaining crisp and easily readable. A straightforward, no-nonsense coin that would fit perfectly in a Buffalo variety collection.
