<B>1890-CC $5 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> Unlike the 1890-CC double eagle, the 1890-CC half eagle is not the first coin one looks for in the denomination when searching for a type example from the mint. That distinction belongs to the 1891-CC. However, the 1890-CC is also not as rare as CC issues minted prior, making it at least somewhat available to date collectors in high grades. This is a choice example, peach-gold in color, with a deep, almost burnt orange tint visible in some of the peripheries and fields. Fully lustrous, this coin has a few too many marks to qualify as a Gem, yet none unduly distract. Some striking weakness is apparent on the highest points.
