1870-CC $1 MS62 PCGS #6964

CAC ex Bender. The only Mint State CAC approved Seated Dollar for a 1870-CC period. One of the last coins added to my set to complete my CAC run through entire set. It took the famous Bender set breakup to have a shot at this awesome Carson City coin. The most prevalent of the four Carson City coins, it is next to impossible to find in mint state CAC approved. The even majestic orange toning on both sides only adds to the coins allure, and as a side bonus, she sets very nicely next to the 1871 in the set that has very similar toning.

1871-CC $1 AU58 PCGS #6967

CAC. One of only two non-mint state coins in the collection. Hard decision to make, but staying consistent to having CAC examples was important to me. The spectacular MS64 CAC that is clearly the finest known by five grades with next CAC approved examples being three AU58's. I have had opportunities to purchase two of the three AU58's CAC approved and this was my first choice. She really is nice with original unmessed with skin and toning underneath that blues, golds and hints of amber. I have had numerous people who know this series well tell me she is the second finest known to exist today in their opinion.

1873-CC $1 Seated AU58 PCGS #6972

CAC ex Bolen/Battle Born/Bender. This coin is a WOW coin for me. I have admired her since she was sold in the Battle Born collection and when the Bender collection broke up, I simply had to have her. If you want CAC approved 1873-CC's anywhere close to mint state your choice is two. The Hanson MS65 specimen(I do believe this coin is a specimen) and the next highest CAC approved coin in this series is this AU58 Bolen/Battle Born/Bender coin. That's it. The originality of this coin and even beautiful toning is spectacular. I have long thought this coin was graded too low at an AU58, but I think some hairlines in the right obverse field likely keep her well anchored in the current grade. She was one of my last additions to the collection and one of the coins I simply can't put down every time I view the collection.
