Well said Carsonite! Each of the Coin of the Week authors provides a look at Carson City minted coins tinted with his personal interest. Whether that's numismatic statistics or socio-economic factors, the COW articles always have great "Flavor".

Tom's first C.O.W. posting is a perfect example.

"Beno" is it? I liked Deepsouthspike better but if you insist.

Dear Beno...heres pic of my 1872-CC Eagle from the Rians Bequeath Collection.



Thanks...Belay Off

Wow Belay

What an amazing coin!!!!! Your 1872-CC eagle has a most "original" look to it....normal circulation wear but no harsh cleanings/dippings so commonly seen on issues like this.

What a find! ...and what a great piece for your collection.

Belay, Beautiful coin there! Like Drummer says very original and tough to find like that.
