1876-CC Trade Dollar, MS61
FS-801, Doubled Die Reverse

1876-CC T$1 Doubled Die Reverse, FS-801, C-1, MS61 NGC. Type One Obverse and Reverse. Tall CC. Strongly die doubled on the olive branch, as well as the right (facing) wing tip and the beak. In his 1988 Encyclopedia, Walter Breen credits Jack Beymer as the discoverer of this important Guide Book Carson City Trade dollar variety. Cherrypickers' refers to it as "the strongest reverse doubled die in the series" and adds that it "is one of the highlights of the Trade dollar varieties and is thought to be extremely rare in grades above AU." The present example has attractive light to medium golden-brown peripheral toning, with hints of forest-green along the upper right obverse border. Minimally abraded for the grade. Luster dominates the reverse and brightens obverse design elements.
