Description

Remarkable 1890-CC Eagle, Select Mint State

1890-CC $10 MS63 NGC. With a mintage of just 17,500 pieces, the 1890-CC eagle is difficult to locate in Select Uncirculated and virtually impossible to find in a higher grade. Medium yellow patina covers both sides of this impressively lustrous specimen. The surfaces show only trivial abrasions, and the strike is mostly sharp. Census: 11 in 63, 0 finer (6/09).
From The Bay State Collection, Part One.
