The 1854 Half Cent offered here is a Choice Mint State example housed in an old fatty holder, displaying vibrant, original color and outstanding surface preservation, with full Red pieces of this issue encountered only infrequently at this level. With no CAC finer in Red designation and only 40 estimated in Red in all grades, this coin is exceptionally primed for appreciation in our opinion, as it is rarer than 1851, 1855 and about as rare as 1856 and 1857 in RD. No MS64 RD CAC has sold; however a 1857 1\/2C MS64 RD PCGS CAC sold for $7,800 11\/24 HA, whilst more recently a relevant 1856 1\/2C MS63 RD OGH PCGS CAC sold for $8,400 10\/25 HA. This coin is as rare and worth about 1856 and 1857. Given the OGH was likely a MS64 RD and the fact that this example has serious claims to a higher grade, it is one of the most undervalued coin in our opinion. In fact in the past 5 years only 1 MS64 RD CAC has sold which was the aforementioned 1857 for $7,800. 1857 also had a CAC Price of $9,500 compared to this date at $7,000.

Struck at the legendary Carson City Mint during the height of the American frontier, with a modest mintage of just 24,108 pieces, the 1881-CC has long been recognized as one of the more desirable Carson City Eagles, prized for its historic Western provenance and strong collector demand. This exceptional AU50 PCGS Old Green Holder Gold CAC example is conservatively graded and possesses eye appeal far beyond what is typically encountered for the designation. Vibrant original orange-gold surfaces retain an abundance of satiny mint luster. Unlike the heavily bagmarked appearance so often seen on this issue, this coin displays remarkably clean, original surfaces with only light friction and minor contact marks separating it from Mint State preservation. The outstanding originality and superior visual appeal have been further recognized by the coveted CAC Gold Sticker, reserved for coins that are undergraded or exceptional for their assigned grade, while the desirable Old Green Holder adds another level of collector appeal, reflecting the conservative grading standards of an earlier era at PCGS. Combining elite certification, exceptional originality, outstanding eye appeal, and the enduring allure of the coveted CC mintmark, this magnificent 1881-CC Liberty Head Eagle represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for the advanced collector of Carson City and Liberty Head gold.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePedigree:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Virginia Range Collection of Carson City \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/cert\/09784465\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePCGS Cert Verification #\u003cspan\u003e09784465\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• CAC GOLD POP - 2\/0\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS Coin# - \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/detail\/8692\/50\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e8692\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PCGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52661028847928,"sku":"09784465","price":10000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/files\/1881-CC_Liberty_Head_Eagle_10_AU50_OGH_PCGS_GOLD_CAC_Holder.png?v=1787813522"},{"product_id":"1871-cc-5-vg10-ogh-pcgs-cac","title":"1871-CC $5 VG10 OGH PCGS CAC","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne of the most under-graded Liberty $5 VG10 example we have seen.

In fact we have several VG10, F12 and F15 in the Virginia Range collection, and this has more detail and less wear than all those. We grade the coin F15. In fact compare another F15 NON-CAC sold for $4,636 06\/26 HA. A nice but non-undergraded lower grade VG08 PCGS CAC sold for $3,904 01\/26 HA. Warm honey-gold surfaces are complemented by subtle flint-gray and delicate pinkish-rose highlights that emerge under direct light, while the coin remains remarkably smooth for a well-circulated Carson City gold piece. CAC approval recognizes this piece as a premium-quality representative of the grade, while the added appeal of its early-generation Old Green Holder makes it especially desirable to collectors who appreciate conservatively graded coins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePedigree\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/coins.ha.com\/itm\/liberty-half-eagles\/1871-cc-5-vg10-pcgs-pcgs-population-5-75-ngc-census-4-99-mintage-20-770-numismedia-wsl-price-520-8323-\/a\/415-9570.s?hdnJumpToLot=1\u0026amp;x=0\u0026amp;y=0\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e08\/2006\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/coins.ha.com\/itm\/liberty-half-eagles\/1871-cc-5-vg10-pcgs-liberty-s-hair-curls-are-nearly\/a\/355-7565.s?hdnJumpToLot=1\u0026amp;x=0\u0026amp;y=0\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e09\/2004\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Virginia Range Collection of Carson City \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"no-margin-bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/cert\/03224660\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePCGS Cert Verification #\u003cspan\u003e03224660\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• PCGS Price Guide -$3,750\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS POP -6\/133\u003cbr\u003e• CAC Price Guide - $3,300\u003cbr\u003e• CAC POP - 3\/30\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS Coin# \u003cspan\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/detail\/8323\/10\" class=\"underline\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e8323\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PCGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52661302460728,"sku":"03224660","price":4900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/files\/1871-CC_Liberty_Head_Half_Eagle_5_VG10_OGH_PCGS_CAC_Holder.png?v=1787810856"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/collections\/1909_1C_INDIAN_MS64_RD_OGH_RATTLER_PCGS_EEPS_HOLDER.jpg?v=1785830763","url":"https:\/\/paradimecoins.com\/collections\/old-holder-vintage-certified-u-s-coins-for-sale.oembed","provider":"Paradime Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
