1876-CC twenty cent piece doesn't count???

Why isn't the 76-CC twenty cent piece included in the registry set? It's not like it's the only expensive coin in a finest known set. All the other coins in the set are five figures in the top grades. Makes no sense to me. What am I missing???

    It's probably not included as there are only 12 examples graded by PCGS and it's a extremely low mintage coin.

    I had not noticed the problem. Accidental ommission, maybe?

    It's here, and it's also in the complete Liberty Seated set. You must be thinking of across the street, where it garners a whole point....[Yippee!]

    Oops! I didn't notice that there was a second option on the MS twenty cent set.

    Coin Values list this coin as follows: Eliasberg sale - April 1997, Cataloged as MS-65 $148,500.
    Is this the last time a 1876-CC 20c sold? If so, it would be very hard to find one for that price today..

    No. A so-so MS64 sold for around $250k last year.

    STEWARTBLAY - I'd be even more bored if I collected MS twenty Cent pieces. I'd only get to buy five coins. That's why I'm working on a Darkside set that will contain at least 3000 coins by the time I'm done. I suppose that makes me bored AND out of my mind!

    Stack's sold one for $131K in Oct 16, 2003 sale. I'd like to know the fool who bought the MS64 for $250K. I don't believe it...

    Oops - I was thinking of the MS66 that Superior had a year or so ago.
