Description
1890-CC Five Dollar, MS63
Attractive Carson City Mint Issue
1890-CC $5 MS63 PCGS. Winter 1-A. Yellow-gold with greenish
overtones and tinges of violet on the reverse periphery create
attractive eye appeal for this scarce Carson City branch mint half
eagle gold piece. Small contact marks as to be expected for the
grade, with none of them bothersome. Typical central softness in
the strike with the hair curls around the ear and on the reverse
shield, but peripheral design elements are well-formed. Frosty
luster radiates throughout the surfaces of this splendid
example.(Registry values: P2)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25Y3, PCGS# 8376, Greysheet# 9085)
Weight: 8.36 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
