Description

1890-CC Eagle, MS62
Conditionally Elusive Issue

1890-CC $10 MS62 PCGS. Variety 1-A. Ex: Sierra Biker. Although the 1891-CC has a mintage of more than 100,000 pieces and is fairly common in Mint State, its 1890-CC predecessor is comparatively scarce. Only 17,500 pieces were produced, and nice Uncirculated examples are elusive. This lustrous and boldly struck Carson City ten is primarily sun-gold with hints of pink-red toning. A thin vertical mark on the lower left obverse field determines the grade. Population: 62 in 62 (4 in 62+), 10 finer (6/21).
From The Sierra Biker Collection. (Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 266S, PCGS# 8718, Greysheet# 9511)
