1936 Wisconsin Half Dollar

A recent addition to my budding collection of early commemoratives. Thanks to Mark Feld for giving me a chance to own this beauty. I found it very difficult to capture the beauty of this coin in a picture. One of the most flashy Wisconsin half I have encountered described perfectly by Mark. Let me know what y'all think about this one.

Thanks
Bhushan

Is that the one he had a couple weeks ago? Had a bluish cast as I recall. Almost pulled the trigger myself.

Yes. The coin just has a hint of bluish green toning along the periphery.

Very nice, great color. A good example of the "less can be more" collecting philosophy. Stick with Mark, he is one of the best to deal with!

Beautiful Badger Coin (I call the Wisconsin "The Badger Coin") and it has just the right amount amount of pretty rim toning to give it some nice personality. The luster appears to be very rich also.
