Description

1890-CC Half Eagle, MS61
Good Strike, Minimal Marks

1890-CC $5 MS61 PCGS. Variety 1-A. Although less available than its 1891-CC successor, the 1890-CC can be found with patience in attractive Mint State. The present sun-gold representative has ample luster and shows fewer than the anticipated number of marks. A horizontal strike-through (as made) between the 89 in the date provides an identifier. The eye appeal is pleasing overall.(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25Y3, PCGS# 8376, Greysheet# 9085)
