That was neat, but odd. To my knowledge, this was the only Liberty Seated Dime CC date that this occurred on, yet did occur on the 1860 S and 1875 S. Wonder why it happened at all? For some reason, PCGS does not list the 1860 S LSD at all in their price guide.

Here's a link to a listing by our host of an 1876-CC Dime certified as a Specimen strike. Also known in Copper and an unknown Copper-Nickel alloy. Anybody have good pictures of any of the three compositions not in a slab so you can see the rims and edges??

The color is funky, but I love the strike on this 1875-CC Twenty Cent Piece. Many of them are weakly struck on the eagle's left wing and the corresponding place on the "LIBERTY" on the obverse. The assigned grade is MS-62.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

A few CC examples from the set. I don't have much in the way of this mint output, but it's always held charm.
