Lot Description

1893-CC Liberty Head Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC. A richly original khaki-gold example with a sharp strike and plenty of original mint luster remaining. The final Carson City Mint eagle, the 1893-CC is also the rarest of the four 1890s issues from this coinage facility. Survivors from a mintage of just 14,000 pieces are particularly elusive in Mint State, which fact has resulted in extraordinary demand for original and problem-free examples at the AU level. A highlight of the eagles in the Fairmont Collection, and a find for the astute gold enthusiast. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8726. NGC ID: 2672.
