Description

Sharply Struck 1893-CC Half Eagle
MS61 Prooflike

1893-CC $5 MS61 Prooflike NGC. The well-mirrored surfaces on each side of this yellow-gold Mint State piece are well-deserving of the Prooflike appellation. Only minor field chatter, rather than mentionable contact, seems to preclude an even finer grade. This specimen is extremely well-struck but just shy of full. From a production of 60,000 pieces. Census: 1 in 61 Prooflike, 1 finer (3/11).
From The Michael A. Tongg Collection.
