- Handsome and Original Choice Mint State 1893-CC $5 1893-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS). CAC. This is a truly superior example that combines tremendous originality with impeccable surface quality. Beautiful medium yellow-gold patina blankets each side and remains nicely undisturbed across the high points. The devices are sharply struck and frosty in finish, complimented by nicely smooth surrounding fields. 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, only about 800 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 150 Uncirculated coins are known. The present example is among the most desirable of these survivors, and just 8 coins have been ranked finer by PCGS. Approval by CAC emphasizes the superior quality and contributes further desirability. PCGS Population: 2; 8 finer. PCGS# 8384. NGC ID: 25YB. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
