Description

Important 1870-CC Half Dollar, VF35

1870-CC 50C VF35 PCGS. The Carson City Mint began production in 1870 with quarters, half dollars, silver dollars, half eagles, eagles, and double eagles. All denominations are scarce or rare, and every 1870-CC coin, regardless of its denomination is in high demand. This pleasing piece falls just short of XF, with minor blemishes on each side that are consistent with the grade. It is an excellent piece that will fit nicely in a Seated half dollar collection, an 1870-CC denomination set, or a Carson City type set. Population: 12 in 35, 22 finer (11/09).(Registry values: N2998)
