- 1936 Proof Set. (PCGS). The first Proof set in modern U.S. Mint history, the 1936 is key, with an original distribution of no more than 3,837 sets, which figure is the original mintage of the Proof 1936 Washington quarter. (The Mint did not keep records on the number of Proof sets sold in 1936.) Writing in the 2002 book United States Proof Sets and Mint Sets: 1936-2002, Ron Guth and Bill Gale describe the 1936 as the "King" of the modern Proof sets. The authors also state that the earliest sets distributed included Satin-finish cents and nickels, the former of which are much scarcer than their Brilliant-finish counterparts in today's market. A lovely set with strong eye appeal throughout, each coin is individually graded and encapsulated by PCGS, as follows: 1936 Lincoln Cent. Satin Proof-64 RB. 1936 Buffalo Nickel. Satin Proof-67. 1936 Mercury Dime. Proof-64. 1936 Washington Quarter. Proof-63. 1936 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. Proof-64. The cent is lightly toned in a pleasing rose-brown, the nickel is also lightly toned, while the silver coins are brilliant. (Total: 5 coins)
