1879-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-55. One of the many rare dates from this popular Western Mint, the 1879-CC has a stated mintage of just 17,281 pieces. Of these, an even dozen have been graded as AU-55 by PCGS, only 6 a notch higher at AU-58, and a single lone specimen as MS-61. Aside from the high grade, this coin has excellent surfaces, none of the usual lunar landscapes familiar to gold collectors. This one has no significant ticks on either side, and the fields have a touch of gold toning which adds to the allure. Any specialist will delight in owning this coin, so bid accordingly.
Estimated Value $3,000 - 4,000.
