Frosty Choice Uncirculated 1890-CC Eagle 1890-CC Liberty Head Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC. Gorgeous rose-gold surfaces are fully lustrous with a billowy, satin to softly frosted texture. The striking detail is full throughout, and both sides are exceptionally well preserved and solidly Choice Mint State in quality. Ten-dollar eagle production resumed at the Carson City Mint in 1890 after a hiatus of five years. The 1890-CC has a mintage of 17,500 pieces, but thanks to an above average rate of survival it is one of the more frequently encountered issues in this mintmarked gold series. We believe that fewer than 1,000 coins are extant in all grades, however, which is a limited total given the popularity of Carson City Mint coinage in today's market. The Mint State population is even smaller still with Rusty Goe (2020) estimating just 150 to 187 coins at that level. Few Uncirculated survivors are Choice, and this CAC-approved example from the Fairmont Collection's JBR Set is certainly among the finest examples available to the discerning numismatist. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set. PCGS Population: 10; 2 finer (MS-64 finest). CAC Population: 5; 0. PCGS# 8718. NGC ID: 266S. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
