So, this is one of my best picks/scores so far.

Somehow, both PCGS and the seller did not notice that this coin was a 1936-D and not a 1936 P.

It was mislabeled by PCGS as a 1936-P and also listed by the seller as a 1936-P on ebay, so I bought this as a "buy it now" for a crazy price that I'll reveal with the grade.

I don't really have a need for this coin so I'll probably be selling this one soon but I am certainly going to enjoy it while it's in my possession.

Thanks for taking a look!

I'll post the grade on Sunday, Feb 27th.

Wow! Awesome! How can this be real? How can they both miss such a huge error! I'm in awe!
New at this series but I'll go with ms 66
I'm always a grade high but dispute the marks on the cheek I like it at that grade.

Thanks! I was surprised as well considering the price difference between a 1936 and 1936 D in higher grades are drastically different.

@ch27, that would be a nice score. Have you confirmed that the certification number corresponds to this exact coin with PCGS? Maybe I'm just feeling a little cynical this morning, but I want you to be a little cautious here to make sure that you don't have a counterfeit slab.

Oh man! Now you made me a little cynical this morning. Let's see some close ups of that mint mark.

I did confirm with PCGS certification. I scanned the barcode, entered the number manually and both match up. Also when I scanned it, I got a green bar at the top of the PCGS cert app that said "This coin and holder have been verified by NFC anti-counterfeiting technology". I included an image of that below as well as a few different angles of the mint mark.

Don't see anything at all to be cynical about! Yeah! So happy for you! I need this one and I'm envious! I'm sure I won't be buying one in the choice + grade.

Excellent score! It's crazy how people don't see things. I'll call it a 64 for $54!

Ok well done. This was a super pick-up then! I'm really glad for you.

Congrats, fantastic score! I'd say MS-64. Are you going to get it reholdered?
