Lot Description

1873-CC Liberty Seated Half Dollar. No Arrows. WB-1. Rarity-3. EF-45 (PCGS). A boldly toned, generally steel-olive example that reveals vivid undertones of cobalt blue, pale gold and reddish-apricot as the surfaces dip into a light. Sharply to fully defined throughout, and not all that far from AU in terms of remaining detail. All 1873-CC No Arrows halves show a Close 3 in the date; conversely, all 1873-CC With Arrows halves are of the Open 3 style. Early date Carson City Mint halves always command respect from series collectors and type enthusiasts alike. Produced to the extent of 122,500 pieces, the 1873-CC No Arrows has an extant population of just 250 to 350 pieces in all grades (per Rusty Goe, 2020). PCGS# 6338. NGC ID: 24KC.
