Choice Uncirculated 1881-CC Half Eagle Rarity
The Finest Certified by NGC
1881-CC Liberty Half Eagle. Winter-1A. MS-63 (NGC).
An impressively lustrous medium gold specimen with lively orange highlights. Sharply struck for the date with bold, complete motifs on both sides; not a single one of Gobrecht's tiny design elements goes wanting here. From a mintage for the date of 13,886 pieces. Tell-tale diagonal die line through ER in LIBERTY. Doug Winter gives this rare date high praise, noting: "The 1881-CC is the rarest Carson City half eagle from the 1880s. It also compares favorably to many of the lower mintage, higher priced issues from the 1870s, especially in terms of overall rarity." As pretty overall as the proverbial picture; if you have the opportunity to view this coin in person we're certain you'll agree. The present beauty is the finest 1881-CC half eagle seen to date by NGC, and that's saying a lot. If you mean to own this specimen, be prepared to face stiff and spirited bidding competition.
