Buffalo Nickel American Bison standing on a line reverse
KM# 192 • 5.0000g., Copper-Nickel, 0 oz., 21.2 mm. • Designer: Felix Schlag Notes: Some 1939 strikes have doubling of the word “Monticello” on the reverse.
KM # 134 • 5.0000g., Copper-Nickel, 0 oz., 21.2 mm. • Designer: James Earle Fraser Notes: In 1913 the reverse design was modified so the ground under the buffalo was represented as a line rather than a mound. On the 1937D 3-legged variety, the buffalo's right front leg is missing, the result of a damaged die.
