Description du lot

1871-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. EF-45 (NGC). Satiny with glints of modest semi-reflectivity in the fields, this pleasing example also offers bright, honey-gold surfaces. Overall sharp detail defines this coin as a high grade survivor from a mintage of just 20,770 pieces. The second year 1871-CC is the most available Carson City Mint half eagle of 1870 to 1873, however it is rare above the EF grade level. The present example will do nicely in an advanced CC-Mint gold collection. Provenance: From the Blue Ridge Mountains Portfolio. PCGS# 8323. NGC ID: 25WD. Click here for certification details from NGC.
