Why no 1936 brilliant proof buffalo nickels slabbed CAMEO?

Some 1937 brilliant proof buffalo nickels have been slabbed CAMEO by both ngc and pcgs. But none from 1936. Wonder why not? Was there a difference in the minting process / technology between the two years. Also I understand that ngc will give a partial cameo 1937 buffalo proof a star designation for the partial cameo contrast.
Here is a picture of a 1937 proof buffalo nickel that has pronounced partial cameo contrast, but not quite enough to be designation CAMEO by pcgs.
