Description

1892-CC Double Eagle, MS61
Gorgeous Orange-Gold Patina

1892-CC $20 MS61 PCGS. Winter 1-A. Yellow to orange-gold surfaces are blanketed with significant luster. Gunmetal and charcoal abrasions are not individually notable, but do add significantly to the coin's patina. The strike leaves few details up to the viewer's imagination. The Carson City Mint reopened in 1889 and did mint double eagles that year, making for a five year run of late issues until it was closed for good in 1893. The 1892 is directly in the middle mintage-wise with a production of 27,265.(Registry values: N2998)
From The Rockhampton Collection.
