Lot 1835
1879-CC. NGC graded AU-53. We are proud to present one of the Finest Known 1879-CC Eagles, with an extremely low mintage of 1,762. Together, NGC and PCGS have only graded a total 47 coins of this date (no doubt including multiple submissions). Of these 47 submissions, a total of 7 have been graded About Uncirculated 53, with a single coin graded About Uncirculated 58. There are no coins that have been graded Mint State by either service. As to this particular specimen, the fields show some of the original luster and have a scattering of tick marks, as always seen. Liberty's face is free of deep or distracting marks, as are the fields and balance of the devices. As to the strike, it is full with every feather on the eagle and curl on Liberty sharply struck. An exceptional opportunity for the date or "CC" collector to put away one of the really tough dates to locate in high grade.
