Tied for Finest Certified at NGC
1884-CC Liberty Head Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. MS-61 (NGC).
This phenomenal offering is for a lovely 1884-CC eagle that qualifies as Condition Census for the issue based on the noteworthy MS-61 grade assigned by NGC. It is an attractive coin in all regards - warm golden-honey surfaces with overlying pinkish-apricot toning, fully struck design elements, and complete mint luster in a softly frosted texture. Exceptionally smooth in hand for both the issue and the assigned grade, accuracy alone compels us to mention a faint line in the left obverse field before Liberty's bust.
The final CC-Mint ten struck prior to 1890, the 1884-CC has a mintage of 9,925 pieces and likely suffered attrition predominantly through domestic circulation in the American West with limited numbers of coins (mostly worn) finding their way to Europe in later years. Repatriations and other newcomers to today's market tend to be in circulated grades. The example offered here is a notable exception as it is fully Mint State. Its offering in this sale represents a fleeting opportunity for the collector of condition rarity Carson City Mint gold coinage.
NGC Census: 6; 0 finer at this service.
