1890-CC NGC AU-58. 1890-CC NGC AU-58.
Lot Title: 1890-CC NGC AU-58.
Description: Spinning cartwheel luster energizes this Carson City product, and it glints with some prooflike effect under appropriate lighting conditions. Unlike competing examples that have seen ill-conceived "improvement", this appears to be a nicely original coin, with only brief circulation friction determining the grade.
Low Estimate: $1,550.00
High Estimate: $1,700.00

Neils Franks Consignment. Surfaces boast just minimal contact even for the AU-58 grade, which is an unexpected bonus for Carson City gold. Indeed, there really are no significant contact marks at...

1890-CC XF.
Ex-Stack's, Glenn E. Bergstrom Collection, 6/25/2008: 1024. Luster is nearly compatible with an AU grade, with a mite too much wear to fully allow for the grade. Minor ticks on the rim and a bit of...

1890-CC PCGS AU-58.

1890-CC PCGS AU-50.

1045The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$1,600.00
1890-CC NGC AU-50.
Marginally cleaned, but not to an extent that would prevent certification, particularly since Carson City gold is so avidly collected. The overall level of mint luster suggests a higher grade, but...
1046The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$2,300.00
1890-CC NGC AU-58.
Clearly a choice AU coin at least, since the flowline luster penetrates nearly completely through the fields, and the design elements appear essentially without wear. Well struck, but rather...

1890-CC NGC AU-50.
Although this is a somewhat easily obtainable Carson City issue for a double eagle, this specimen displays an enhancing orange-gold elegance. Lightly hairlined and with random contact ticks, it is...

1890-CC ANACS AU-55.
This example, from the most popularly collected western mint, sparkles with a rich yellow-gold reflectivity. Trivially marked, and with a very scant number of abrasions, this dramatically struck...

1890-CC NGC AU-58.
This popular Carson City type is constantly getting tougher and tougher to locate in AU and higher grades. The surfaces, detail, and luster observed on this example are all commendable. In fact, it...
