[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 26155911, member: 101855"]I was fascinated by the Twenty Cent Piece when I was high school. I took the collection as far as I could with the four coins which were issued for general circulation. As an adult I have completed the set with all of the Proofs and Mint State pieces, except, of course the 1876-CC. I have paid way too much them, especially it 1877, which was heavily promoted some years ago. I fell into the trap. I have seen a number of 1876-CC coins. The worst one had EF sharpness with ugly toning. It made the rounds of many of the major auctions in the early 1980s and went unsold. The best one I’ve seen was an MS-66 holder. The asking price was $575,000 which was well beyond my limits. Here is my best Twenty Cent Piece. It is graded MS-65. [ATTACH=full]1669979[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
