Congratulations on a fine coin! I'm working on the same set, only I started with the 1889 first to get the expensive one out of the way and work my way down the list to the cheaper ones. Lol! 1879 was my second one, then 1893. I'm down to only 1884, 1890, and 1891 left to buy.
Bo-Mar. Took it to the range yesterday and shot a 6" group from 50' right out of the case. The previous owner had the sights, the comp trigger, and flat mainspring housing put on. The original parts came with it in case I'd like to switch it back.
This one should arrive in the next day or two. Held it a year ago at the ANA in Chicago and then again in April at Central States show. Feel very fortunate to be the current owner.

Replaced my MS64 1885-CC with this VF35 1885-CC and couldn't be more pleased. It arrived in the mail this morning after waiting weeks, and I was excited to hurry home from work to unwrap it. Not many guys trade down. Lol!

It's a 1799 rather than 1899. Nice coin.

A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.

I keep looking. Finally picked up another one after a loooooong dry spell. MS Jeffersons in Rattlers have become a prime focus of my collection.

Love it. What made you pick 1925?
@johnny010 like almost all of the pieces in my set, I went for eye appeal only. Appearance trumps dates in this set.
Here is the old coin that the above upgraded.
A nice coin but the reverse looks flat IMO. Still going to hold on to it though.

Looks even better in hand. Bowers Die State III. The other is Die State IV.
(Fixed the date. Thanks for the heads up! Typo on my phone.)
