Unfortunately, it doesn't add any value to the coin, as there are so many overdates available on the 1880-CC. The much stronger VAMs-4, 5 & 6 barely bring a premium. TD

Right now, that might be the case. In the not too distant future, I believe CC VAM collecting will become increasingly popular. I do not believe it is a bad place to be building a position right now. CC collectors are nearly as fanatical as VAM folks to begin with; there is a lot of crossover between the camps; the variety count is low enough to make doing sets attainable though with a handful of serious stoppers; there are interesting varieties among them; and we are only a good attribution guide away from it taking off.
