Description
A Second High Grade 1873-CC Liberty Eagle Rarity
1873-CC Liberty Head Eagle. AU-53 (NGC).
A pleasing coin with rich luster still evident, especially on the reverse where the intricacies of the design protected the fields. Green-gold coloration in the fields and centers yields to flashy peach-gold peripheral toning on both sides. The surfaces display trivial contact marks and faint field hairlines as expected from limited circulation.
PCGS# 8667. NGC ID: 2655.
NGC Census: 10; 3 finer (AU-58 finest). There are also no Mint State examples listed at PCGS.
From the PentaMint Collection. Earlier from Heritage's CSNS Signature Auction of April 2001, lot 7838; Milwaukee ANA Signature Auction of August 2007, lot 1977; our sale of the William Porter Collection, June 2013 Baltimore Auction, lot 2527; Heritage's sale of the "So Cal" Collection, January 2020 FUN Signature Auction, lot 4471.
