Description

1893-CC Five Dollar, MS63
Bright Mint Luster

1893-CC $5 MS63 NGC. Variety 2-A. In the past 20 years the estimated number of 1893-CC fives has almost quadrupled due to the large number of CC gold coins (mostly twenties) imported from European sources. The number of MS63 examples of this issue has also increased but not as much as other issues. Only 165 to 200 pieces are believed known in all grades of Uncirculated. This is an especially attractive coin that is sharply struck throughout and also exhibits softly frosted mint luster with just a peppering of small abrasions. Census: 26 in 63, 13 finer (5/21).
