Losbeschreibung

1936 Buffalo Nickel. Satin Proof-65 (NGC). CAC. OH. This fully struck, otherwise untoned specimen exhibits delicate champagne-apricot and pale pink highlights as the surfaces rotate under a light. The 1936 is the first Proof Buffalo nickel produced since 1916. Rarer than the only other Proof Buffalo nickel of its era -- the 1937 -- the 1936 has a mintage of 4,420 pieces. Nearly two-thirds of the coins struck were made with a satin finish, as here. Despite this, the number of Brilliant and Satin Proofs known for the date are about equal in today's marketplace. PCGS# 3994. NGC ID: 278X. Click here for certification details from NGC.
