Description

Bright and Attractive 1879-CC Half Eagle, AU53

1879-CC $5 AU53 NGC. A moderately obtainable Carson City Half Eagle, the '79-CC is a slightly better issue that can still be used for type purposes. This is a sharply struck coin that would work very well as an AU type coin. The fields are semi-reflective and there are no distracting abrasions on either side.
From the George J. Koller Collection of CC Gold.
