Liberty Head Half Eagle

1883-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC.

Smooth and inviting AU quality for this lower mintage entry in the later Carson City Mint half eagle series. Boldly struck overall with pleasant honey-rose patina to still-lustrous surfaces. Despite the readily recognizable low production run of 12,598 pieces, the 1883-CC half eagle is one of the more underrated rarities from the fabled Nevada branch mint. Attractive problem free survivors are elusive at all levels of preservation, the present example finer than most and sure to catch the eye of astute gold enthusiasts.

PCGS# 8362. NGC ID: 25XL.
