Description

1936 Nickel, PR68+
Satin Finish, Extraordinary Quality

1936 5C Type One -- Satin Finish PR68+ NGC. CAC. Satin Finish proofs were struck before their Brilliant counterparts but proved unpopular with collectors at the time (collectors feel differently today, of course). According to David Lange, they "accounted for approximately two-thirds of the total proof mintage [4,420 coins], though their surviving population is less than that of the later, more brilliant coins." Faint lavender and gold overtones grace the shimmering nickel-gray surfaces of this exquisite Superb Gem proof. Census: 39 in 68 (3 in 68+, 2 in 68 , 1 in 68+ ), 0 finer. CAC: 16 in 68, 0 finer (3/22).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 278X, PCGS# 3994, Greysheet# 3155)

Weight: 5.00 grams

Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
