Description

1882-CC Half Eagle, AU55
Scarce CAC-Endorsed Example

1882-CC $5 AU55 PCGS. CAC. Variety 1-A. Ex: Navy Mustang. Half eagle coinage at Carson City achieved a new record high in 1882, with 82,817 coins struck. This issue is usually available as a result, although only a small portion of the coins in each grade can be considered high quality for their respective grades. The Navy Mustang coin is CAC endorsed, exhibiting substantial luster in the fields with original straw-gold patina throughout. A moderate scrape is hidden in the hair over Liberty's ear, with only trivial marks elsewhere.
