1880-CC $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle PCGS AU58
1880-CC $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle PCGS AU58
1880-CC $5
SKU: 41258566
Coveted Carson City gold with near-Mint appeal, this 1880-CC $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle, certified PCGS AU58, represents the elusive high-end of a date that seldom appears in superior grades. Although the 1880-CC was struck in far greater numbers than the 1879-CC, auction offerings have historically been comparable, underscoring the surprising scarcity of choice survivors. Most known examples are well worn; pieces above EF are rare, and true Mint State coins are very rare. In AU58, this coin sits at the cusp of Mint State eye appeal—an attractive and highly collectible example of Old West gold.
The surfaces display warm honey-gold color with soft orange highlights and traces of satiny luster clinging to the protected areas. Light high-point friction is consistent with the grade, while sharp definition remains in Liberty’s hair, the stars, and the eagle’s plumage. Overall eye appeal is strong for the issue, making this a standout candidate for Carson City specialists and Liberty Head Half Eagle collectors alike.
