1937-D 5C 3 Legs, FS-901 VF20 Certification #43869325, PCGS #38475
Expert Comments
Ron Guth
The 1937-D 3 Legs variety resulted from over-zealous polishing of a worn reverse die. The front foreleg was almost completely removed and the back leg developed a "moth-eaten" appearance (see image above). A diagnostic feature of this variety is the "stream" that appears beneath the bison's belly. If this feature is not present, beware of an altered coin.PCGS #
