Description

1884-CC Half Eagle, AU53
Original Nevada Patina, CAC

1884-CC $5 AU53 PCGS. CAC. Winter 1-A. Ex: The Fairmont Collection. The 1884-CC is a better Carson City half eagle with a challenging mintage of 16,402 coins. Heavy circulation throughout the Old West has left most certified pieces ranging between XF40 and AU58, and PCGS reports only three Mint State examples (3/26). This gently circulated AU53 displays original russet-gold patina accented with ample frosty luster in the protected areas. The luminous fields show lightly blended marks, with none that are individually bothersome.(Registry values: P3)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
