<B>1936-S 50C Columbia MS68 NGC.</B></I> Though the Commission of Fine Arts, perhaps reeling from the deluge of designs in 1936, panned the design for the Columbia halves, few numismatists were critical of its simple, yet effective design. The obverse of this piece has pale greenish-gold at the rims and in tiny specks at the center, while the remainder of that side is sky-blue. Soft violet-pink and orange patina graces the reverse. NGC recognizes just six coins in MS68, while PCGS notes just four, with none in MS69 at either service (4/07).<BR><I>From The Cary & Cheryl Porter Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
