Holy smokes, this is one of the most strikingly beautiful colored 1885-CC dollars that I've come across in all my years of buying and selling awesome toned dollars. As my grandchildren would say -- this is the BOMB!!! Before I get to the color though, let's get the boring stuff out of the way. This specimen is very well struck with scintilating bright white coruscating luster throughout. The surfaces are rock solid for the grade designation with just a few light scattered abrasions, none of which are serious or highly distracting in nature. Now for the cool part. More than three-fourths of the obverse has been abundantly blessed with killer original mint bag toning. When you gaze upon this glorious jewel the view will be absolutely breathtaking as you encounter amber, aquamarine, lime, apricot, tangerine, magenta, violet, teal and burgundy iridescence presented in classic curved bands. The reverse boasts blast white mint brilliance throughout with a touch of amber at the rim. A compelling example of this date with MONSTER eye appeal. If you're a toned dollar connoisseur working on a set by date and mintmark, this may well be the coin for you.
