Description
Dazzling Prooflike 1936 Rhode Island, MS66
Rarely Seen With Reflective Fields
1936 50C Rhode Island MS66 Prooflike NGC. CAC. Little is
known about Prooflike Rhode Island halves. The distribution of
these pieces was so fraught with cronyism it is no wonder that
records are not extant for special strikings. Nevertheless, they do
exist, although proofs apparently do not. How many exist is open to
question, and is probably best indicated by the number certified.
This is a wonderful example. The fields are brightly mirrored and
the devices do not show any contrasting mint frost, resembling the
proofs struck between 1902 and 1905. Both sides are completely
brilliant and dazzling, and the devices lack the usually seen
abrasions. Census: nine in MS66, with none finer at (5/10).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# BYHT, PCGS# 89363)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 12.50 grams
ASW: 0.3617oz
Mintage: 20,013
