FROM THE BIGMO CIVIL WAR COLLECTION This is such a grand coin! We absolutely consider the quality to be EXTREMELY HIGH END. Deep mirrors beam intensely from all over; they have remarkable clarity and are virtually flawless. When you twirl the coin, the mirrors look like a freshly formed sheet of ice. Both sides enjoy a deeper but lively mix of navy blue, aqua green, magenta and purple colors. Miss Liberty and the details are all fully struck and boldly stand out. The eye appeal is great! Only 1,000 Proofs were struck. Due to the rarity of Mint State coins, many collectors have opted for a Proof in their sets. The vast majority of known survivors (CoinFacts estimates 500 exist in all grades) are graded PR64 and lower, a number of them impaired by cleaning or other post mintage issue. On July 21, 1861, the First Battle of Bull Run commences marking the first official battle between the military forces of the United States and the Confederate State Army. A lack of adequate training on both sides may have provided an atmosphere of unprofessionalism and disorganization. By making tactical use of railroads to provide much needed reinforcements, the Confederate troops were able to gain an early victory over the unprepared Union. PCGS 3, NGC 7, CAC 2. PCGS has graded only one coin higher. The last PCGS CAC piece to sell in auction brought $21,150 in October 2015; prior to that, the Gene Gardner coin, also graded PR66 brought $76,375. The current CAC CPG value is $24,200 and the Collectors Universe value is listed at $28,000. Since NONE have been sold via public auction in nearly 5 years, we think the values published are too low. This coin will be a great addition to GEM Proof Seated Dollar , Type, or box of 20 collection. Cert. Number 50209424 PCGS # 7004
