Losbeschreibung

Razor sharp devices and appreciably mirrored fields are minimally toned in delicate pinkish-silver iridescence. A truly remarkable example, impressive for both its outstanding quality of production and superior level of preservation. 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, though the number of Brilliant and Satin Proofs known for the date are about equal in today's numismatic marketplace. Many collectors choose to own one of each style.
