Description

MS63 1890-CC Half Eagle
Reverse Struck Through

1890-CC $5 Liberty Half Eagle -- Reverse Struck Through -- MS63 NGC. A bullet-shaped strike-through, as made, is on the reverse between the branch stem and the period following the denomination. An object, such as a small rod, came between the reverse die and the present coin. This lustrous orange-gold Carson City half eagle is smooth aside from minor field grazes. The centers show minor softness usual for the Old West facility.
