1890-CC $5 MS (PCGS#8376)

Spring 2022 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: Exceptional Choice Uncirculated 1890-CC Half Eagle 1890-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC. Offered is a formidable condition rarity from this otherwise more obtainable Carson City Mint half eagle issue. Frosty rose-gold surfaces are remarkably smooth and well preserved, the quality very close to Gem. The central high points are soft, but otherwise we note razor sharp detail imparted by a generally well executed strike. The 1890-CC is the first Carson City Mint half eagle produced since 1884 and, while it is rightly regarded as a common issue in this mintmarked gold series, Mint State survivors are challenging, and premium quality survivors such as the present example are rare, especially when scaled against the strong demand that Carson City Mint coinage enjoys. A significant find for the specialist, and a coin that is sure to see spirited competition between bidders. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set. PCGS Population: 34; 5 finer (MS-66 finest). CAC Population: 8; 2. PCGS# 8376. NGC ID: 25Y3. Click here for certification details from PCGS. Click here to see Coins in Motion.[“Coins]
