first year of issue (for mere mortals, at least):
look at that dirt! special thanks to ryk.
centennial date:
there is some kinda dirt barely clinging to the obverse of this coin. sure, it probably could have been easily removed before it was slabbed. luckily, it remains. the luster on the reverse is way more pronounced than this photo reveals. thanks to cro (www.coinraritiesonline.com).
don't forget to vote!

I don't like the actual dirt on the 1850. Natural color is great but the dirt is a distraction. The 1876-CC looks nice and natural.

Your 1876 cc takes the cake. You can see the luster breaking through the rays. They are both gorgeous

So for pure eye appeal, I voted for the CC coin.

the 76-cc is nice.
CAC apparently liked them both.

Don't dislike the '50 but does it deserve a CAC gold sticker?
yes.
Still a nice coin though.

Nice dirty coins. It looks like the slab on the 1850 could use some work though.
yeah, it could. what is your best method?
