Description

1879-CC $1 Capped Die, VAM-3, Top 100, AU50 NGC. A Top 100 Variety. Some original luster remains in the fields beneath light golden toning. The strike is bold, and little high-point friction is seen. Light chatter on Liberty's cheek is consistent with the grade. Die lumps around the mintmark on the reverse identify the VAM-3 variety.
