Proof Buffalo experts...Question

Have a 36 Proof Buffalo graded PCGS PF66 Brilliant.
The coin is obviously brilliant, but has the reverse die characteristic of the satin proof.
It looks nothing like a satin finish, and exactly like a 37 surface
What is going on??? is this a transitional piece, brilliant or satin?
no pics, but trust me on the brilliant look and die characteristic.
Thanks in advance.

1) Satin Proof (Type l)
2) Brilliant Proof (Type 2)
3) What I refer to as hybrid Proof - these are almost always found labeled/certified as "Brilliant Proof". However, although they clearly display some mirror-like reflectivity and greater flash than the Satin Proof coins, they are not as brilliant/reflective as the typical "Brilliant" Proof examples. Regardless of what you want to label them, I have seen many such (hybrid) coins.
Brilliant and Satin.
Don't know if there is a price increase because of it, but I do not thik so.
