Capped Die. Sharply struck with thick frosty luster. Cream-white surfaces display a little champagne-gold along the periphery. High grade ‘Capped Dies’ are considerably scarcer than the ‘Perfect CC’s’ as the later was heavily represented in the GSA hoard.

A ‘perfect CC’ example with light gray surfaces and noticeable underlying luster.

Capped Die. Very nice for the grade with a strong strike and attractive cream-white surfaces.

Capped Die. Nearly XF detail with pleasing light silver-gray surfaces.

Blazing white surfaces with thick frost and touches of light gold in the outer core and along the periphery. The strike is sharp and abrasions are nearly non-existent. Amazing quality and none have graded finer at PCGS or NGC!

Reverse of 1878. Brilliant white surfaces with subtle touches of gold on the reverse. The luster is strong and the strike is razor-sharp. An attractive example and very desirable.

Incredibly intense booming white mint luster radiates while touches of violet-gold cling to the periphery. The strike is needle-sharp and Ms. Liberty’s cheek is virtually mark-free. A nearly flawless and absolutely amazing dollar.

Reverse of 1878. Sharply struck with flashy mostly white luster and splashes of champagne-gold color primarily along the peripheral areas. The design elements are frosted and the eye appeal is outstanding!

Reverse of 1878. Original golden-gray surfaces.
