1890-CC Liberty Head Eagle. EF-45 (PCGS).A fully original deep honey example with glints of pinkish-rose iridescence to both sides. Bold to sharp Choice EF quality throughout. The 1890-CC has a limited mintage of 17,500 pieces, but thanks to an above average rate of survival it is one of the more frequently encountered issues in this mintmarked gold series. We believe that fewer than 1,000 coins are extant in all grades, however, which is a limited total given the popularity of Carson City Mint coinage in todays market. For the assigned grade, this is certainly one of the finest examples available to the discerning numismatist.From the Fairmont Collection.
