Description
1878-CC Eagle, VF35
CAC Approved
1878-CC $10 VF35 PCGS. CAC. Winter 1-A. The only known dies
for the small mintage of 3,244 eagles at Carson City in 1878, the
second lowest eagle mintage at that branch of the U.S. Mint. While
the 1877-CC was only 88 examples higher, just the 1879-CC with a
mintage of 1,762 coins was lower. This example is moderately worn
as the VF35 grade suggests, but retains the eye appeal of a higher
grade. The copper-gold surfaces are exquisite with splashes of pale
reddish-orange toning on each side. Population: 8 in 35, 49 finer.
CAC: 2 in 35, 7 finer (12/24).(Registry values: N2998)From The Drumwright Family Collection.
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 265K, PCGS# 8681, Greysheet# 9486)
