Description

1936-D Columbia, South Carolina Sesquicentennial. MS-68 (PCGS). CAC.
A satin to softly frosted example with silky smooth, virtually flawless surfaces. Luxurious multicolored peripheral toning delivers outstanding eye appeal. Half dollars of this type were authorized by Act of Congress dated March 18, 1936, to commemorate the sesquicentennial of the founding of Columbia, South Carolina. The Philadelphia Mint issue has a mintage of 9,000 coins, but the total number of PDS sets sold could not have exceeded 8,000 sets, the mintage for the 1936-D and 1936-S issues. This is one of the finest Denver Mint survivors, an Ultra Gem fit for an advanced cabinet.
PCGS# 9292. NGC ID: BYGD.
PCGS Population: 47; 10 finer (all MS-68+). CAC Population: 23; 0.

Estimate: $5400
