Description

PCGS 1893-CC XF 45. A choice, two-toned example of this scarcer Carson City issue. The surfaces overall have a light orange-gold color while the devices are outlined with a deeply contrasting russet patina. A milling mark on the cheek of Liberty is noted, and this appears to be the only distracting blemish on the coin. Trends $950 in XF 40, $1,950 in AU 50.
