[QUOTE="mill rat41, post: 519794, member: 16688"]Wow, a "stampede" of responses. I was planning on sending it in for authentication. Comparing to a regular 1937D: the e pluribus unum does appear to be slightly higher off the back (and I mean SLIGHTLY higher), on the 3 legs I do see a little hazy area behind the neck (roughly on a diagonal line from the top of the one in the date to the 5 o'clock postion of the end of the larger feather of the indian), the groin of the 3 leg appears to be longer and pointier than that of the regular, the rear leg does look quite ratty compared to the regular. One other thing that seems different is the length of the large feather. One the 3 leg it seems shorter than on that of the regular. Also,the feather on the back of the head (the one that only the bottom tip shows behind the neck) seems smaller than on the regular nickel. These differences might be because my regular has less wear than the 3 leg. I stacked the two on top of each other and the sizes match exactly. Comparing the rims, they are the same thickness. Gonna get someone with more experience to take a look at it tommorrow. Handsometoad you have a pm.[/QUOTE]
