Select Mint State 1893-CC Half Eagle

1893-CC $5 MS63 NGC. Variety 1-A, early die state. Very slight doubling is visible on the second C. This sharply struck half eagle has frosty orange-gold lustre with deeper rose toning along the borders. Doug Winter's research indicates that approximately 60 to 80 mint state examples of this issue survive; however, only about a dozen are known in MS63 or finer quality. This example will certainly be pursued by active collectors of the half eagle series and the Carson City Mint series.
