OREGON TRAIL 1936-S

Owner Comments:

1936-S Oregon. MS-68 (PCGS). ANR Baltimore Mar/06A simply incredible piece, this stands at the top of the PCGS roster, with just two others. While we haven't seen those two, or probably have not, we can say that it would be difficult to envision pieces that are equal to or finer than the present one in terms of artistic appeal. Both sides are sharply struck and deeply frosty, with a hint of rainbow toning.PCGS Population: 3; none finer. The distribution of this issue slipped to just 5,000, tying the 1933-D for smallest production quantity thus far in the series.From the Richard Jewell Collection. Previously from Heritage's sale of the JFS Collection, August 2004, Lot 4295.
