Description

1882-CC Five Dollar, MS62+
Condition Census Quality

1882-CC $5 MS62+ NGC. CAC. Variety 1-A. Among the finest examples of this conditionally rare Carson City issue. In AU grades, the '82-CC is always available for a price, but Uncirculated pieces are undeniably rare. Most survivors were shipped to foreign banks and indifferently stored for many years. Minimally marked examples with bountiful luster, such as the present coin, are seldom encountered. In addition, the strike is precise and the butter-gold surfaces exude eye appeal. The only MS62+ coin at either service, with just a single example finer. Census: 5 in 62 (1 in 62+), 1 finer (1/15).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25XH, PCGS# 8359, Greysheet# 9075)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
