Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 10364)
Struck to commemorate the California-Pacific International Exposition held in San Diego during 1935 and 1936, the 1936-D San Diego half dollar was a popular coin during the time of its striking. It was the second year of issue for this coin, which was originally produced at the San Francisco Mint in 1935. The 1936 Denver-minted halves, like the identical 1935-S examples, were designed by Robert Aitken. However, the 1936-D half dollars were sold for as much as $3 by the Exposition -- significantly higher than the $1 the 1935-S took at the fair.
The 1936-D half dollar is common, with pieces widely available in grades as high as MS65 and MS66. Examples grading MS67 are scarce, while those in MS68 are extremely rare. Most known examples feature white surfaces and rich, frosty luster.

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.
