1936 Proof Walker GTG- 65/CAC added video
PR65/CAC
This is what I picked up for my set today and I'm thrilled with it. It isn't perfect but it has eye appeal to spare.
What say you?

That’s a great looking early walker proof! I’d say PF64 - PF65.

I’m not great at grading proofs so I’ll say PR66.

I've never seen that kind of contrast on a '36 before! I won't hazard a guess at the numeric grade, but it sure is darn purdy!

They are amazing little coins with dished reflective fields aren't they? Nice PR67's can be had for reasonable sums.

Nope, local-ish dealer

That isn't MJ's coin. His was a 67.
This one looks like about a 65.

Thanks. I didn't remember the grade. The frosted devices stuck out to me most.

I thought 65, but everyone has said that so I'll go 64+

It's impossible to give an insightful grade on a brilliant proof such as this coin from simply a pair of images. However, I can absolutely tell you that this coin appears terrific and that it is the big kahuna of late date WLH proofs. I like it.

Nice coin!

At least a 65, maybe 65+?

PR-64 because it has a few light scratches in the obverse fields.
I have had an on again, off again interest in collecting the Proof coins from 1936 to 1942.
I can size up most coins pretty well from decent auction house photos, but I've learned that's not really possible with Proof coins. You have to see them to grade them.

With all the cautions regarding grading proof coins from photos...I will say PR64....Cheers, RickO

that is a great looking coin.

A sun away from CAM and the sweet spot before it gets crazy exspencive. Well bought

I love the frosty proofs from this era but dislike the substandard die polish practice of the times. There was a beautiful Pf 66 Star coin available recently that had fully frosted devices and cost over 10k. Mine is Pf 66 toned CAC with PCGS and NGC certification.

Outstanding, especially with that cameo contrast.

Love the cameo contrast. Exactly what I look for in a proof WLH. Unfortunately lacking the frost on the sun required for true CAM status, but way ahead of the proofs that lack contrast altogether.
