Lot Title: Two 1936 Gettysburg. PCGS MS-66 (green label).
Description: One coin is simply amazing for the collector who wants truly original material for his collection, as it displays classic, knockout tab-toning, including the familiar round pattern on the obverse, and supremely crunchy, crackling patina on the reverse. This coin is dominated by sensational luster over tobacco-gold and honey-blond patina, accented with shimmering lime-green accents on the reverse. Marvelous! The accompanying example is hardly a slouch, filled with aluminum-white luster that gently cedes to pastel rainbow iridescence at the rims. Buy one, get one free in this two coin lot! (PCGS# 009305)

1936 Gettysburg PCGS MS-64 (rattler).
Price guides suggest a nice price advance at MS-65. Seemingly a point better today, this popular half-dollar probably should come out of the old holder and be given a chance at upgrade, as the...

1936 Gettysburg NGC MS-65.

1936 Gettysburg. NGC MS-65.

1936 Gettysburg, GEM.
The consignor had this in his Dansco 7070 album and the coin has just barely begun to display a hint of toning near the edges, especially toward the lower obverse. Each side is amazingly free from...

1936 Gettysburg. PCGS MS-65 (rattler).
Eggshell-white from arm's length, close inspection reveals an attractive steel-white surface that is very lightly flecked on both sides by an infinite supply of minuscule greyish toning dots. Thus,...

1936 Gettysburg. PCGS MS-66 (rattler).
