Lot 1754
1936 Liberty Walking Half Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 66. Hint of light toning. Because this was the first year of production for Half Dollar Proofs since the days of the Barber series, a fair number of coins were acquired by new collectors and non-collectors who did not realize how to care for Proofs. The end result was that many 1936 Proofs were cleaned or otherwise impaired, and today very few are extant with unaltered and original surfaces as fresh as this Proof 66 example certified by PCGS. Pop of 210 with 18 in PR-67 and 1 in PR-68 (PCGS # 6636) .
Estimated Value $5,500 - 6,000.
