FROM THE BIGMO CIVIL WAR COLLECTION As many of you know, our sister firm, Legend Numismatics has worked with Bruce Morelan (a partner in Legend Auctions) to build the finest ever Mint State Set of Seated Dollars. Their search was endless. They know everything about EVERY date of this series inside and out. One thing they always say: this date is a stopper in real Mint State, and almost never comes nice. This coin is superior to most we have seen! We rank it VERY HIGH END. The surfaces are clean and are of virtual GEM quality. Even if you tilt the coin you won't see the well hidden ticks, you need a strong glass. A moderate luster enhances the totally original shades of deep pewter and pale olive. These are NOT drab or dull colors either. Miss Liberty and the details are extremely well struck. The eye appeal is really nice! It is believed that a large portion of the mintage of 46,500 was exported to Central and South America, the quantity too large to have been "a token issue" nor was it really large enough to have satisfied domestic circulation demand. President Andrew Johnson declared the war over on May 9, 1865, despite the fact that there were some pockets of resistance throughout the south. The final Confederate forces to surrender were Cherokee and other Native American forces that alligned with the rebels, commanded by General Stand Waite. His forces surrendered on June 23, 1865, more than a month after Confederate President Jefferson Davis was captured. PCGS 10, NGC 21, CAC 1. This piece, the lone 64 CAC piece, sold for $25,850 in the June 2014 Gene Gardner Collection sale, and is earlier ex Stack's January 2008. And it is still a CAC pop 1. The only coin higher is impounded in FINEST EVER Collection. Dollar collectors, your dream 1865 is now available! We cannot stress enough the extreme rarity of this date and grade, even though the pops look large. This is a serious opportunity for any Mint State Seated Collector, Civil War Collector, or anyone who wants a really rare and underrated Civil War coin! Cert. Number 12701164 PCGS # 6955
