Lot Description

1936-D Buffalo Nickel. FS-901 (FS-019). 3 1/2-Legged. VF-35 (PCGS). The lightest pale-olive tinting hardly prevents us from describing this as a silver-gray coin. Very appealing at the middle reaches of the numismatic grading scale, both sides are well defined and free of significant abrasions. Another attractive circulated survivor of a Buffalo Nickel error that can be very challenging to obtain in any grade.
