Yes this may be a free plug but how often does one get to see one of these? 
Details via coinace.com:
"1865 is the date with the rarest gold mintages being only 155 for all Gold dollars through double eagles – The 1865 quarter eagle probably has fewer than 15 coins which reside in private hands today – The $5 has just 10-12 coins which survive today with 2 in museum collections with one in the Smithsonian and one in the American Numismatic Society. The $10 eagle is super rare with only 8-12 pieces known to exist with one in the Smithsonian – The $20 double eagle has the lowest mintage for any Type 1 Double Eagles after 1858 and there are fewer than 10 pieces known with 2 of those in museums (Smithsonian and ANS) – The finest known is a PF66 Cameo. Civil War era coins are very special treasures, it was a time in our nation when it was split and near chaos, it was a time when an old way of thinking and barbaric ways of slavery were to be abolished. Abraham Lincoln would not bow down to the Confederate ways because he was determined to keep our great nation one! It was a crossroads in our country’s pastime which proved to work out the right way. To own any coinage from the 1861-1865 is unique and should be cherished by whomever owns a piece. Unlike any other dates, these dates represent “unity, fairness, and strength!” This 1865 Civil War proof set ALBANESE RARE COINS, INC. is proud to present is one that is unique, unmatched by quality and scarceness and invaluable! The grades are as following 1c PF64RB – 2c PF65RD – 3CS PF66 – 3CN PF65 Ultra Cameo – H10c PF66 Cameo – 10c PF66 – 25c PF66 – 50c PF66 – S$1 PF67 – G$1 PF67 Ultra Cameo - $2.5 PF65 Ultra Cameo - $3 PF66 Cameo - $5 PF65 “star” Cameo - $10 PF66 Ultra Cameo - $20 PF66 Cameo All certified by NGC $2,350,000.00"
