1936-D Cincinnati Music Center Half Dollar
.
PCGS
graded MS-66
. A hint of light gold tone near the edges makes
this a superior Cincinnati example. The low mintage caused a
stir of feverish speculation among collectors when the Mint
released this issue in 1936. Prices rose almost at once to $75
for the three-coin, P-D-S set, before a reaction set in and the
market tumbled in 1937-38. Only 5,005 struck.
Pop 315; 59
finer, 15 in 66+, 39 in 67, 4 in 67+, 1 in 68.

. Grade include:
1936-P,
NGC MS-66,
CAC Approved
; 1936-D, PCGS MS-66; 1936-
S, NGC MS-66.
Struck on the occasion of the state's 100th
anniversary celebrations held in Dallas. The obverse eagle is
superimposed on a five-pointed star representing Texas as the
Lone Star State. The reverse uses a winged Liberty with various
evens and persons important in Texas history incorporated into
the design. One feature of the coin that came in for criticism
was the "vulture-like" eagle; no one, it seems, had noticed
(except possibly Coppini himself and Breen who reports on it)
that the bird alludes to the Mexican national emblem and thus
would have represented Texas's old Mexican origin. Lot of 3
coins.
Estimated Value ................................................... $750 - 800
