Description
1884-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 1-A, the only known dies. AU-58+ (PCGS). CAC.
This vivid, undeniably original example exhibits lovely color in a blend of deep honey and brighter rose-orange. The strike is boldly to sharply executed throughout, and ample luster remains confirming the impressive near-Mint grade from PCGS. The 1884-CC is the final Carson City Mint half eagle struck prior to 1890, and it is scarce, with only 16,402 pieces produced. Survivors number only 145 to 190 coins in all grades (per Rusty Goe, 2020). With only a handful of Mint State pieces extant, this premium AU-58+ offering from the Fairmont Collection is sure to appeal to advanced bidders.
PCGS# 8365. NGC ID: 25XP.
PCGS Population: 1; 3 finer (MS-62 finest). CAC Population: 19; 1. The former total includes coins certified both AU-58 and AU-58+.
From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
