Description

1893-CC Liberty Half Eagle, MS63+
Final CC-Mint Five

1893-CC $5 MS63+ PCGS. CAC. Winter 2-A. The 1893-CC Liberty half eagle claims a mintage of 60,000 pieces and the surviving population of Mint State specimens numbers 165-220 examples. In The Confident Carson City Coin Collector: Volume 3, Rusty Goe writes that, "keeping things in perspective, the current supply of examples of this date-denomination represents only about one and a half percent of the original mintage figure. By all counts, this is a very low survival rate." This well-detailed Plus-graded Select specimen displays lustrous orange-gold surfaces, with vibrant mint luster and outstanding eye appeal. The high quality within the grade is confirmed by CAC. Population: 55 in 63 (6 in 63+), 8 finer. CAC: 19 in 63, 2 finer (12/25).(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25YB, PCGS# 8384, Greysheet# 9090)
