<B>1871-CC $10 AU55 PCGS.</B></I> The 1871-CC is a major rarity within the Motto Liberty eagle series. Only 8,085 pieces were struck, and Douglas Winter, in his <I>Gold Coins of the Carson City Mint</B></I>, estimates 90 to 100 extant. The 1871-CC spent years in circulation, and most were eventually melted. PCGS and NGC have graded examples as low as VG8, and have certified only three pieces in Mint State This nicely struck and lightly abraded piece possesses lovely orange-gold toning, and displays a fair amount of remaining luster. A small strike-through at star 4 is mentioned for pedigree purposes. Population: 3 in 55, 2 finer (6/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>\)
