Wonderful 1871-CC Half Eagle, Choice XF

1871-CC $5 XF45 PCGS. The 1871-CC half eagle is considerably scarce in any grade, and downright rare in About Uncirculated or finer. Only 20,770 half eagles were struck during this second year of the popular Carson City Mint. This attractive, yellow-gold example exhibits lots of luster in the protected areas. Two shallow scratches on the obverse minimally affect the design and are the only marks worthy of mention. The strike is crisp and there is great eye appeal. Population: 11 in 45, 20 finer (6/08).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25WD, PCGS# 8323, Greysheet# 9051)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
