1893-CC Five Dollar, MS64
Rare, None Finer at PCGS

1893-CC $5 MS64 PCGS. Variety 1-A. The final Carson City half eagle comes from a mintage of 60,000 pieces but is scarce in Mint State. Most such coins grade no finer than MS62. The present Choice example is a magnificent coin among the finest at PCGS. Nothing more than a few faint grazes in the fields prevent an even finer grade, and each side offers warm orange-gold luster with original surfaces. The strike is sharp throughout.

Collectors in the 1890s paid little attention to mintmarked gold, and in the Western regions, smaller gold denominations such as the half eagle were widely used in circulation. A Carson City short set of Liberty half eagles is a small but challenging pursuit. This is a rare opportunity to acquire the final date in that collection in a virtually Condition Census grade. Housed in a green label holder. Population: 8 in 64 (1 in 64+), 0 finer (11/16).
