1938-D Buffalo Nickel Variety

Does anyone know what variety this is?


I thought it was D/S but NGC did not assign it to the coin when I sent it in for grading.

I don't have pics of the rest of the coin.

Thanks in advance!

If nobody else chimes in, I'll have to look in my book once I get home from work.

 

I assume that you specified "D over S" on the submission form. Did you also pay an additional fee for the attribution? (I don't know if you would have to.) ~ Chris

 

Also, is it possible that NGC simply does not recognize the variety because it is barely visible? ~ Chris

 

The D/S was free. The specific variety would have been the extra $15.

 

I thought it was pretty noticeable

 

looks like a good D/S to me. Have you tried calling NGC and asking them if they can review the coin's images and perhaps the coin itself?

 

Your eyes are better than mine! ~ Chris

 

I don't know if it's just a D/S. After looking in my book and back at the image provided here, I'm leaning more towards D/D/S. You don't have any other pictures available?

 

They miss attributions sometimes. Recently happened to me as well on a flying eagle cent. I didn't bother sending it back in and someone bought it anyway when I put it on EBay.

 

Not until it comes back from NGC

 

Big Tee44 post an image of the reverse when you ha e it back... so I can id mm placement and see all sides N E S W them tag me.

 

It would also help to have images of some of the actual 38 D varieties, there are several different RPM and OMM for this issue. It may match one of the others.

 

Varietyvista.com there's great shots of all OMM and RPM for the 38 D.

 

Here's the coin as a whole

I believe it to be an rpm 001
