1937 Buffalo Nickel

Well on some of the 1937-D Buffalo Nickels, the poor buffalo is missing his right front leg. It seems the guys at the mint were trying to repair a damaged die and inadvertently removed part of the buffalo's leg. The 1937 Buffalo Nickel was the second-to-last nickel to be minted in the series and was the last Buffalo Nickel to be minted at the Philadelphia mint. During 1937, the Philadelphia mint produced 79,485,769 examples, the second highest amount produced in one year. 1936 was the only year to have Buffalo Nickel production above 100 million pieces.
