Description

Rare 1879-CC Half Eagle

1879-CC $5 PCGS Genuine. The PCGS number ending in .94 suggests Altered Surfaces as the reason, or perhaps one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of an AU specimen that has been whizzed. The fields and portrait have been whizzed to efface any abrasions, leaving microgranular surfaces. The reverse exergue is hairlined. This Carson City date is rare in all grades, limited by a little-saved mintage of 17,281 pieces.(Registry values: P3, N3)

Note for clients in the European Union: This lot is considered by the European Union to be “investment gold”. We believe that it meets the criteria established in Article 344(1), point (2) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC and thus should be exempt from import VAT regardless of the selling price. Any questions or concerns about VAT should be addressed to your accountant or local tax authority.
