Description

1890-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle, MS64
Rare CAC-Approved Example

1890-CC $5 MS64 PCGS. CAC. Variety 1-A. Ex: Bender Collection. The median grade for a Mint State 1890-CC half eagle is MS62, with finer pieces being scarce. This MS64 example represents the finest that this Carson City issue is typically available, as only a handful of higher-grade pieces are known. Softly frosted wheat-gold luster complements largely unabraded surfaces, while the only obvious strike softness appears on the eagle's neck as usual. The quality for the grade is high, as affirmed by CAC. Only seven other MS64 examples of this issue are CAC endorsed. Population: 37 in 64 (2 in 64+), 3 finer. CAC: 8 in 64, 2 finer (7/22).
