1876-CC $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-61. Untoned, well struck and semi reflective surfaces. Winter 1-A. From the Ashland City sale description: "The 1876-CC has the lowest mintage of any Carson City Half Eagle. Only 6,887 pieces were produced with an estimated 80-90 coins extant today in all grades. High grade pieces are especially elusive and this is easily a Condition Census example. The surfaces on this piece are certainly atypical for the issue. Both sides are bright and yellow-gold in color with shimmering prooflike fields. Sharply struck on each side, the coin is exceptionally clean for the grade. This is the finest '76-CC we can remember having ever handled" -- and a coin definitely deserving of your attention. Among the finest graded. Pop 1; 1 in 64; 1 in 65; 1 in 66; no others in Unc.
Estimated Value $35,000 - 40,000.
Ex: Ashland City.
