- Mint State 1874-CC Half Dollar
1874-CC Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Arrows. WB-101, Die Pair WB-3. Rarity-4. MS-61 (PCGS).
This is the "Unicorn Eagle" variety with the curious additional feather spiking off the eagle's head just above his eye. Generally bright silver with a few hints of orange-gold starting to form in the fields, but lustrous and attractive for the conservative (in our opinion) grade assigned. Boldly struck throughout and an impressive example for the date or Carson City collector. The diagnostic die chip at the base of the T of LIBERTY is present along with the die line crossing through ES of STATES. Rare and desirable in every way, and a tough coin to find in any Mint State grade.Numismatic Reflections by Q. David Bowers
Carson City half dollars, minted only from 1870 to 1878, have long been a favorite. Most in existence of this year show circulation. Mint State coins, including at the MS-61 level, are thus highly prized.
PCGS# 6347.
PCGS Population: 1; 13 finer (MS-66 finest).
