- 1890-CC Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-62+ (PCGS). CAC. Delightful medium gold surfaces with tinges of pinkish-rose iridescence very much in evidence as the coin rotates under a light. Lustrous frosty features are virtually full in striking detail and nearly smooth enough to support a Choice Uncirculated grade. The 1890-CC is the first Carson City Mint half eagle produced since 1884 and, while it is one of the more readily obtainable issues in this mintmarked series, Mint State survivors are scarce when viewed in the wider context of U.S. numismatics. Premium quality survivors such as the present MS-62+ are actually quite rare from a market availability standpoint, such is the strong following that Carson City Mint coinage enjoys among advanced collectors. A significant find for the specialist, and a coin that is sure to see spirited competition between bidders. Provenance: From the York Collection. PCGS# 8376. NGC ID: 25Y3.
