Liberty Eagles
1882-CC $10 AU55 NGC. Variety 2-A. A continued focus on half eagle production at the expense of higher denomination gold coins resulted in a mintage of only 6,764 1882-CC eagles. About 300 examples are estimated to survive. This olive and orange-gold piece has strong stars, feathers, talons, and fletchings with minor blending on the curls. Partial luster emerges from the design recesses. NGC reports 39 finer grading events (11/17).
