- Key 1870-CC Liberty Eagle Rarity Newly Discovered, the First Public Offering 1870-CC Liberty Eagle. Fine-12 (PCGS). Warm olive toning complements both surfaces. Minted during the first year of coinage operations at the Carson City Mint, the 1870-CC ranks as the key date in the Carson City eagle series, comparable in rarity to the more highly esteemed Carson City double eagle of the same date. Despite a mintage of 5,908 pieces, we suspect that perhaps as few as 30 to 40 pieces can be accounted for in today's numismatic circles; Carson City issues tended to circulate heavily at the time of their release. Struck in a time when virtually no collectors were interested in branch mint coinage, most surviving specimens are in lower grades. This rare eagle will spice up any collection of Liberty eagles or Carson City coinage. PCGS# 8658.
