- 1890-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. MS-62 (PCGS). Richly frosted surfaces exhibit lovely iridescent highlights of vivid reddish-rose to dominant deep honey-orange color. Both sides are sharply struck in most areas with an attractively original appearance throughout. The 1890-CC is the first Carson City Mint half eagle produced since 1884 and, while it is one of the more readily obtainable issues in this mintmarked series, Mint State survivors are scarce when viewed in the wider context of U.S. numismatics. Premium quality survivors such as the present example are actually quite rare from a market availability standpoint, such is the strong following that Carson City Mint coinage enjoys among advanced collectors. A significant find for the specialist, and a coin that is sure to see spirited competition between bidders. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8376. NGC ID: 25Y3.
