MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 3:41 pm Whats going on with the third feather on this one? Die polished or perhaps considered a 2 1/2 feather? Report this Post to the Staff
Jerry Picker Valued Member United States 480 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 3:55 pm That's a diagnostic for a 3-leg. Broken 3rd feather. Report this Post to the Staff
MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 4:36 pm Thanks Jerry, thats good to know. I have seen others, all with the telltale pee stream and the rough hind leg but normal on the third feather. First time I am seeing the partial feather here. Congrats! Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 5:11 pm Separation of the 3rd feather was due to die polishing. As Jerry Picker mentioned, a good DM for the 3 leg. Not enough abrading of the 3rd to be considered a 2 1/2 feather though. Not trying to hijack the thread, but below is an example of a 37-D 2 1/2 Feather. Report this Post to the Staff
psuman08 Pillar of the Community United States 1773 Posts	Posted 10/16/2022 1:43 pm Looks like an attractive example. I am far from an expert on buffalos and this one quickly blew past what I was comfortable bidding on it. I think you may have done well with this one @Jerry Picker. Report this Post to the Staff

macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5832 Posts	Posted 11/04/2022 9:20 pm The first set of photo makes me think is MS, the second set said AU, but difficult to say cleaned or not. Nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff
