Description

1876-CC Five Dollar, VF20
Rarely Offered CAC Example

1876-CC $5 VF20 PCGS. CAC. Variety 1-A. Ex: Navy Mustang. Half eagle coinage at Carson City dipped to just 6,887 pieces in 1876, reflecting the Nevada branch mint's role is providing for the needs of local commerce with little or no excess production. Rusty Goe estimates that only 120 to 140 pieces survive in all grades, which is in agreement with the issue's auction appearance rate. The Navy Mustang coin is exceptional for the VF grade level. Uniform run-gold surfaces retain hints of luster in the fields and are devoid of bothersome abrasions. This is one of only two coins in VF20 with CAC endorsement. Population: 7 in 20, 76 finer. CAC: 2 in 20, 11 finer (6/22).
