Description
Spectacular MS64 Deep Mirror Prooflike
1879-CC Dollar
VAM-3, The 'Capped Die' Variety
1879-CC $1 Capped Die MS64 Deep Mirror Prooflike PCGS.
VAM-3. An utterly fantastic representative of this long-known
Carson City variety, actually a Large CC Over Small CC mintmark but
traditionally known as the "Capped Die". The mirrors are
astonishingly deep on the present piece, and the well struck
devices exhibit subtle frostiness that leads to pleasing contrast.
A handful of scattered flaws are present on each side, but most of
these are shallow and generally unimportant. A minimally toned
example that displays beautifully. Population: 4 in 64, 0 finer
(6/08).From the "A Gift of Undeserved Favor" Collection.(Registry values: P6, N4719)
