- Historic Final Year 1893-CC Half Eagle 1893-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A. MS-63+ (PCGS). CAC. The final Carson City Mint half eagle mintage is represented here by a noteworthy condition rarity. Lustrous frosty surfaces are enhanced by attractively original color in warm rose-gold. Fully struck and expertly preserved. The Carson City Mint half eagle series passed into history in 1893 with a mintage of 60,000 coins. Due to extensive circulation and mass melting, no more than 1,000 coins are thought to survive for today's collectors. This is the scarcest of the 1890s CC-Mint fives in AU and Mint State grades, and only about 165 to 200 Uncirculated coins are known (these estimates per Rusty Goe, 2020). The present example is among the more desirable of these survivors, ranking among the finest seen by PCGS. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set. PCGS Population: 3; 8 finer (MS-64+ finest). PCGS# 8384. NGC ID: 25YB. Click here for certification details from PCGS. Click here to see Coins in Motion.[“Coins]
