- FROM THE BIGMO CIVIL WAR COLLECTION Yet another SUPERB piece from this incredible collection. Of course this coin is VERY HIGH END! Deep mirrors beam boldly from all over, exhibiting strong clarity and are super clean. When twirled they have a slightly watery, glass-like texture. The obverse has gorgeous original colors of reddish gold, gold, and pale violet; the reverse obviously was sitting on felt for a long time as there are moderate shades of pale navy, forest green, and purple that swirl all over. The eye appeal is fantastic! The Confederate forces had an early advantage over the Northern troops. First they were fighting in their home territory, defending against what they saw as an invading force. Their more rural, agrarian society also allowed the southern solider to be better horseman and marksmen. This advantage was seen at the first major battle of the war, fought on July 18, 1861 at the First Battle of Bull Run. Only 1000 were minted, however MOST were melted. PCGS 2, NGC 1, CAC 2. PCGS has graded only one higher, a 66+. There is no auction record for a PCGS CAC PR66 Cameo ever selling. The current Collectors Universe Value is $6,500. In our opinion, ANY GEM Proof 1861 10C is RARE and undervalued today. Good luck finding another! Cert. Number 25266920 PCGS # 84754
