    Something completely different and random, the colors on this South Africa  proof are just wild.  I will probably wonder why I bought this down the road,  but the colors are awesome.

    Coinbuf reacted to Sandon in 3 legged nickel b/c-25 got 6 points   
    I assume that your question is, "Does a VF 25 1937-D 3-legged Buffalo nickel receive 6 points in the NGC Registry?"  The answer is "yes, in a type set." Type sets are scored solely on the type of the coin, its grade, and whether it was made in circulation strike or proof format.  Any circulation issue 1913-38 "Variety 2" Buffalo nickel graded Very Fine would receive 6 points in a type set. I assume that you used the coin to fill a slot in a type set.
       In a date and mint set, such as Buffalo Nickels 1913-1938, Complete Circulation Issue Sets | NGC Registry | NGC (ngccoin.com), where the rarity of the specific issue counts, the 1937-D 3-legged Buffalo is worth 1531 points in Very Fine grade.

    Sometimes the conservation may reveal an old cleaning that the crud, haze, or artificial tone was hiding.   Thus a coin that has been conserved is not immune to receiving a details grade after the conservation.

    Coinbuf got a reaction from Sandon in 1955 ddo bn new photo   
    Better, but still not in sharp focus, that is not a knock as coin photography is not easy.   But I still do not see any significant die doubling, it for sure is not DDO-1 or DDO-2 as both of those have large spreads that would be very easy to see.
