1875-CC Double Eagle, MS62+
Attractive CC-Mint Type Coin, CAC

1875-CC $20 MS62+ PCGS. CAC. Winter 1-B. The 1875-CC ranks as the most-available Carson City Liberty Head twenty from a stout mintage of 111,151 pieces. Four known die pairs were required to accomplish the production. A new coiner was hired mid-year, apparently giving a boost to the double eagle mintage for the year. This is a lustrous, orange-gold example -- sharply struck -- with occasional small marks and traces of mint grime, but no overly distracting abrasions. A nick on the bridge of Liberty's nose and a diagonal scratch on the chin are noted. Relatively few pieces achieve a higher Mint State grade, and fewer still with CAC endorsement. Population: 15 in 62+, 35 finer. CAC: 33 in 62, 8 finer (11/24).
