- Condition Rarity 1891-CC Eagle 1891-CC Liberty Head Eagle. Winter 3-C, FS-501. Repunched Mintmark. MS-64 (PCGS). As one of the finest certified examples of the perennially popular 1891-CC ten-dollar gold issue, this condition rarity near-Gem holds tremendous appeal for advanced CC-Mint gold enthusiasts and mintmarked type collectors. Beautiful satin to softly frosted surfaces also exhibit subtle semi-reflective tendencies in the fields as the coin rotates under a light. Drenched in vivid rose-orange color, razor sharp striking detail and uncommonly smooth surfaces further enhance this coin's desirability. 103,732 eagles were struck in the penultimate year of the Carson City Mint's coining operations and, unlike for many issues in this mintmarked gold series, thousands were exported to Europe. Repatriations beginning in the second half of the 20th century have swelled the Mint State population to upward of 2,300 coins (per Rusty Goe, 2020). Most of these grade no finer than MS-62, at which levels the 1891-CC is a mainstay of Mint State gold type sets and CC-Mint collections. Scarce in MS-63, MS-64s such as this are formidable condition rarities. Tied for CC#2 behind the Battle Born specimen in NCG MS-65, this coin is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced cabinet. PCGS Population: 6; 0 finer. PCGS# 8720. NGC ID: 266U.
