Description

1871-CC XF 40. Evenly circulated, but with a few light marks on either side. A nice, original example of this rare CC-mint issue. The best graded by NGC as of 4/94 were three XF 45s; PCGS had graded a single AU 50 as its finest. While XF 40 is an average grade for this date, the appearance of even a single example on the market creates considerable stir among specialists.
