Nice doubling on the date, too!

:too-funny:

 

reckon that doubling makes it even more priceless? lol

 

Holy smokes. I thought it was just a legend. Congrads on your absolutely amazing discovery. Can't wait to read about it in the next ANS magazine!

 

I need that one to finally fill the last hole in my Dansco.

 

i had an inkling you may like this quite unique find!

 

The Dansco itself is extremely "rare" with the extra hole. :hail:

 

:secret: Did you check the reverse for the 3-Legged version ? :rollureyes:

 

Is it a three-legger?

 

nope, just your standard four legger

 

There is no such thing. The 1949 buffalo nickel has a 3 horn variety which is the most extreme and rarest coin ever.

Edited to say: Nebies, please keep in mind that there are no such things on this thread.

 

I picked up my album on Coin Vault TV. It was a bonus for buying the set of gold plated 1982 Lincoln Cent variations in the cherry presentation box.

 

I'm still looking for the 1958 Buffalo to fill out my birth year set.

 

i just love the coin vault.

 

Check again. It could be the very rare "lifted leg" variety........

 

Also because it is worn / circulated, the pile of Buffalo chips may not be easily visable :rollling:

 

WOW the mint really lowered their standards that year
