- 1882-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC. Attractive honey-rose surfaces are boldly to sharply defined overall. Unlike the previous year, 1882 proved to be quite productive at Carson City. A modest increase in bullion coming out of the Comstock combined with a full uninterrupted year of operation allowed the Mint to increase its output significantly. Striking quality improved, as well; the 82,817 coins produced for the 1882-CC half eagle were struck from a single pair of dies, a different story from just a decade earlier. Thanks in part to the more generous mintage figures, around 750 examples (per Rusty Goe, 2020) are believed to exist for present generations to appreciate. This Choice EF offer superior quality that will draw the attention of gold type collectors, Carson City Mint specialists, and aficionados of Western gold. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8359. NGC ID: 25XH. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
