Fully struck coins are very rare, though examples having a reasonably good strike are more available than for 1925-D and 1926-D.
1927-D nickels typically have just average to good luster. Heavily worn dies produced a rich, frosty quality, and this may appeal to some collectors.
Varieties:
- The most interesting variety for this date has a triple-punched mintmark (FS-1927D-501).
- Aggressive polishing of the reverse die produced the 3-1/2 leg variety (FS-1927D-901).
- A two-feathers variety is also reported (FS-1927D-401).
- Minor die doubling is known for the reverse.
- Cuds include one giving the bison a small cap and another affecting OF AMERICA.
