Cool coin Dave. that's what is fun about coins too, the stories that go with them.
That 1878-CC you see pictured is nice and all, but I have a 1922 Peace dollar that is worn, been cleaned & has tape reisdue on it, but the CC would leave my collection before the Peace dollar in a heartbeat. The Peace was one of seven giving to me and my sister by my dad around 1968 or 1969 when I was 4. We went to the local Sears store where my older sister lost all of hers but I was able to hang on to mine!
It's the only coin I can attribute from my deceased Dad, so It's my for a long time.
