1937-D. 3 Legs. PCGS graded MS-64 PQ. Lovely golden toning. A very commendable Mint State 64 of steadfast quality, being frosty, lustrous, and pretty much free of marks. A satiny beauty, a landmark example of the issue. Regarding the issue, it is arguably America's most talked-about "error" coin unless one wants to argue minutia and say that the 1955 Doubled Die Cent edges it out. The date (along with other famous rarities, including the 1943 "copper" cent and the 1804 dollar) was advertised extensively in the 1950s and 1960s in kids’ comic books. Just as the quality of the piece is steadfast, then too must bidders at bidding time hold steadfast against competitors or forever miss this opportunity. Pop 169; 64 finer, 3 in 64+, 52 in 65, 3 in 65+, 6 in 66 (PCGS # 3982) .
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500.

 
Realized $7,638
