Lot Description

1874-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. VF-30 (PCGS). Dominant orange-gold to olive patina with lighter golden-yellow in select areas. Lightly struck over the high points of Liberty's portrait, typical of this early date CC-mint issue, although other features are suitably sharp for the assigned grade. These are scarce to rare at all levels of preservation, the 1874-CC half eagle produced to the extent of just 21,198 pieces and the issue suffering a high rate of attrition through circulation in and around Carson City. PCGS# 8971. NGC ID: 26AP. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
