Brilliant white and a sharp strike with thick frost on the design and reflective mirrored fields. The perfect ‘CC’ variety.

CAC. Capped Die. A Gem for the grade with strong detail, no heavy marks, and lustrous original silver-gray surfaces.

CAC. Perfect CC. Blast white and a sharp strike with heavy frost on the design creating a nice cameo contrast. Housed in an old green label holder.

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. Well struck with satiny luster and a light golden-tan hue. Housed in an early green label holder.

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