I'll mention a couple of things. Not sure how you checked the coil (may have been thru the band switch). Would check the coil at it's connections to be sure it's the issue. It could be a problem with bad bandswitch contacts. neither is a picnic.
36ga might be a bit of an over kill. Current wise something closer to 38-40ga would work and it would be shorter. 40ga =160' 160 ohms. 36ga is over 300'.
There is an alternative to rewinding that would be adding a rf choke from pins 1 and 2 and a small mica cap from pin 1 to 3.

Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
