Looks like 002 with the peg leg R, I have found 4 but can not get a hold a 001.

Even with the circ wear there is no mistaking the peg leg R... Nice!!!

For those of you who PMd me about what a 'Peg Leg R' is, in this case, it is a mistake. This die was hubbed at least twice, and one of those hubbings was with a hub that had a broken/missing left leg of the R in LIBERTY. There is also reference to a Peg leg R for the Ike Dollars that is much more established.
I do not know who started calling the 1936 dies 'Peg Leg', but it is not appropriate in this case. It is also confusing to new folks who are not familiar with the lingo. To some, it's just a funny name, but to other's it is confusing. Could we please use the correct terminology on these? Thanks!

Thanks Bob... I always thought it was called a peg leg... Now I know better!!!

I as well, that is why I posted it, Thanks Bob.

They used that broken R hub on many dies, some are normal (not doubled dies) and they used it on the 3 big doubled dies but on those doubled dies they also used a non broken hub.

Here's one of the coins made by a die from that hub that isn't a doubled die:
