Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 10294)
A very small number of coins were minted across the Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco Mints, and many of the coins were distributed among the major players who brought the coin to fruition. The coins, offered in sets of three (P, D, S) for $7.75, were reported as sold out early on, leaving many collectors who wanted these coins disappointed. Values for the trio shot up quickly, reaching $50 for the three coins. Of course, after values peaked, many of the early inside buyers sold the coins for a tremendous profit. As coins flooded the market, values returned to more reasonable levels of $12 to $15 for the set.
The Cincinnati half dollars are popular with collectors today. While it would seem the three issues would be equally rare given their virtually identical mintages, the 1936-D is encountered more frequently than the 1936 (-P) or 1936-S Cincinnati halves. While mostly encountered in the MS63-66 range, they are generally tough even in those levels, while examples grading MS67 or better are scarce to rare.

About CDN Prices
All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.
The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value. CDN Publishing is not responsible for typographical or database-related errors. Your use of this site indicates full acceptance of these terms.
