Losbeschreibung

1884-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC. Handsome deep honey surfaces reveal ample traces of a semi-prooflike finish in the fields as the coin dips into a light. Sharply defined overall with an uncommonly smooth and original appearance for a key date Liberty Head gold coin at the assigned grade level. The 1884-CC is the final Carson City Mint half eagle struck prior to 1890, and it is a scarce issue with a mere 16,402 pieces produced. Survivors number only 250 to 300 coins in all grades (per Rusty Goe, August 2012), and with only a handful of Mint State pieces extant this superior quality AU is sure to catch the eye of advanced bidders. PCGS# 8365. NGC ID: 25XP. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
