Well struck with lustrous yellow-gold surfaces and a popular Civil War date. Just 5,000 minted with far fewer high grade survivors than the low mintage dates of the 1880’s.

Nice original lustrous surfaces.

Bold inks stand out against bright premium paper. The full borders are balanced much nicer than one would expect for the grade.

A beautiful virtually new note that exhibits more than ample borders, vivid color, and white paper. Eye appeal is excellent!

CAC. Blazing luster and a sharp strike with nice clean surfaces.

Sharply struck with choice original lustrous surfaces.

Warm, even golden-brown surfaces with strong original mint luster.

R-5. Similar to the regular issue dies, except the motto GOD OUR TRUST is set directly into the field without a scroll above the eagle. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. This is a lovely example with a gorgeous turquoise tint when tilted under a light.

R-3. Regular issue dies with a plain edge, but struck in bronze rather than the regular issue copper-nickel. Thin planchet variety struck with medallic alignment. This was the Mint’s first time to experiment with bronze. This sharply struck example blends a considerable amount of mint red with soft brown toning.
