The May 2013 ANA National Money Show

详细说明: 1876-CC Liberty Eagle. EF-45 (NGC). A Carson City Mint rarity that was produced in a small quantity, 4,696 pieces to be exact, and is unknown in Mint State, at least to NGC and PCGS, neither of which has certified an Uncirculated 1876-CC eagle! (For the record, it is worth noting here that the PCGS website suggests just 60 to 75 examples of this rarity can be accounted for in any grade.) The deep honey-gold surfaces of this attractive eagle enjoy some orange toning highlights as well as reasonably "clean" fields and devices that yield few untoward marks to the naked eye -- of course, some marks are apparent under low magnification, but that's to be expected for a well-circulated gold coin of the era. Indeed, the Carson City Mint output of gold issues, 1870 to 1893, includes several dates within the denominations produced that are completely unknown in Mint State, as much of what that mint produced went immediately into the channels of commerce and spent much time in pocket change as a result. We are certain that this specimen, Choice EF, will see spirited bidding activity. If you mean to own this elusive rarity, you will need to bid as though you mean it when it crosses the auction block.
