UNITED STATES: AR 50 cents, 1936, KM-180, Elgin Centennial Commemorative, an incredible lightly toned example! PCGS graded MS67, ex Marcel Hoessly Collection. The Elgin was one of the many commemoratives struck in the 1934-1939 "commemorative boom" era. The original mintage for the Elgin was 25,015 coins. The mintage was well distributed at the original issue price of $1.75, but sales eventually slowed to a trickle with about 5,000 pieces still on hand. Those coins were eventually returned to the mint to be melted, resulting in a net mintage of 20,000 coins.
