Condition Census 1881-CC $10 Gold 1881-CC Liberty Head Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC. A newcomer to the Condition Census for the issue, this is the second finest 1881-CC eagle known. It is a remarkable condition rarity with full, soft, frosty mint luster blanketing both sides. Pretty rose-gold color is also notable, as is razor sharp to full striking detail. Fully Choice in quality with an impressively smooth appearance, the most discerning CC-Mint experts will be pleased with this piece. Even with a production of just 24,015 pieces, the 1881-CC still ranks among the highest mintage issues of this mintmarked gold type. Doug Winter (2001) speaks of a small hoard of AU and Mint State coins entering the market circa 1997 to 1998. However, this issue remains rare in Uncirculated preservation with Rusty Goe (2020) allowing for only about 30 examples at that level. The CC#1 coin is the remarkable Eliasberg-Battle Born Collection specimen, certified MS-64 by NGC and approved by CAC. Raking just behind it, is this top-pop PCGS MS-63, also with CAC approval. Possessing extraordinary quality, undeniable originality and exceptional rarity, this offering from the Fairmont Collection will attract excitement when it crosses the auction block.
