The article below is a true story it influenced the love of collecting coins and starting " Pop Pino's Coin's " After my beloved Father. An 8 year old first true experience in collecting. 1937 D three legged buffalo nickel is one of the famous and one of the most sort after error coins in the collecting world. I remember back when i was just starting out collecting coins with my dad. I couldn't have been more than 7 or 8 years old. My dad would say " We got to get that three legged buffalo". In my mind i was thinking a "three legged Buffalo??? Not wanting to disturb my dad, I didn't ask him any questions just yet. My mind was trying to figure out what a "three legged buffalo" looks like. Was it another kind of buffalo, could it be a different breed???? Or since it was also called a Indian head nickel was it some symbol of a great god, maybe it symbolized a great warrior that was wounded in Little Big Horn battle. But what ever it was my dad just had to have one. The imagination on a young child could really make people dizzy. Eventually i asked my dad, and my answer was finally put to an end. We where down at the local coin dealer on West 45Th street in Manhattan. I remember the owner's name. It was Joey, but we called him Jo-Jo for short. Dad asked Jo-Jo "do you have a three leggier". Jo Jo answer "not yet". My dad would have this disappointed look on his face. "make sure you let me know when you get one." Jo Jo would say "how about a 1942/1 Mercury Dime   Genuine Three Leggier 1) The entire Buffalo on the reverse of the coin is smaller then any altered one. Can be seen by the naked eye. 2) The hind legs on the genuine 3 legged are narrow and not totally rounded. Looks bumpy 3) The 3 leggier has several bumps between the front and back legs. 4) The beard tips on the 3 leggier are blunt and about even 5) On the genuine, the hoof between the missing leg is weak 6) Genuine 3 leggier, the P of PLURIBUS and the U of UNUM do not touch the upper portion of the buffalo. This concludes part one of "How To Detect Counterfeit & Altered Coins" A short story on my store's name Several years ago my dad died, one the worst days in my life. I took over our collection. I feel like my dad was still there next to me when i'm around coins looking to sell or buy. I can still hear him said "i want a Three leggier", like it was yesterday. We all called my dad "Pop". So "Pop Pino's Coins" is My M.O. Thanks Morgan Silver Dollars Morgan Silver Dollars 1878-1921 are composed of 90 % Silver Metal . They are "this years next best investment" for the new year. Many sold "as Junk Silver" have been minted since 1878. People in the business of melting coins, call them junk silver coins, these are like bullions, values go up with the price of silver. The reason they are called junk coin is that the coins maybe damaged or have no date or in a very low grade where the numistist very of the coin is less then the metal contain. Silver value, not like Gold, has not hit it's high as of yet. Back in the 1980's Gold topped out at approx. $800.00 per ounce. Silver Topped out about $62.00 per ounce. As of today Gold is at $1,650.00 per & Silver is at $30.00 per. In the 1980's the silver to Gold ration was about 12 to 1, today the ratio is about 43 to 1 in valve.
