1936 Washington Quarter (25c)

PCGS PR66 CAC

The 1936 Proof Washington Quarter represents a fascinating piece of numismatic history. With only 3,837 proof coins struck that year, these quarters were produced during a time when the U.S. Mint was just reviving its proof coin program after a 20-year hiatus.

This PR66 example with CAC approval shows beautiful original toning that has developed naturally over nearly nine decades. The surfaces display a subtle blend of silver-gray and champagne hues with hints of russet, particularly near the peripheries. Despite a few small carbon spots visible on the obverse (common for coins of this era), the mirrored fields maintain impressive reflectivity and contrast nicely with the frosted devices. The eye appeal is exceptional for a pre-war proof, with the CAC sticker confirming its premium quality for its grade.

Finding a 1936 proof quarter with this level of preservation and originality is increasingly difficult, as many examples have been dipped or improperly cleaned over the decades. This coin represents an ideal opportunity for the advanced collector seeking an authentic, premium-quality specimen from the early modern proof era.
