1936-D 3 1/2 Legged Buffalo

There was a short article in the last issue of the CoinWorld (p14) about this coin - and a very good picture.

Just checked the last couple issues of Coin World and didn't see the article/pic. What date is the Coin World you mentioned? Thanks

 

Sorry for the delayed response -was out of town for a few days.

It was May 10 issue, page 14.

 

Not sure how I missed that article but I'll be going back to read it. Thanks for the info.

 

Found the article, thanks. So, the article states there are more than one variety of the 1936-D 3 1/2 leg. Now looking for die indicators to identify the DIFFERENT varieties. There must be a professional grader out there that can tell us how to authenticate them.

 

I have been doing more homework on the coin. I will update when I have some new information. StateQuarterguy~ let me know what you find out, I am excited to know.

 

now im not knocking the coin at all. its more then what ive got.

but looking at it it honestly looks like a 35 that has been tampered with to make it look like a 36.

but like you said the pictures dont do it justice.

I would be really intrested to see what a grading company has to say, and I hope they say its a 36 3 1/2 legged

 

Definitely. Let me know too.
