From the Kenneth S. Abramowitz Collection.

At first glance, this coin appears to be dated RY 34, but it is actually 36--the first two digits of the date are engraved extremely close together, while the final digit is a tiny mark that partially melds with two dots of the border. The obverse die match confirms this reading.
