Description

1936 50C PR66 PCGS. The smaller-denomination coins of 1936, particularly cents and nickels as well as a few dimes, are known with two different surface qualities, satin and brilliant. To date, there have been no quarters or half dollars located with a satin finish. All examples have the brilliant finish, as does this one. This Gem proof comes close to qualifying as a Cameo, with brilliant silver devices and deeply mirrored fields. These fields display light iridescent toning, but most of the original brilliance still shows through.
