Lovely AU53 1872-CC Twenty

1872-CC $20 AU53 PCGS. The 1872-CC is the first Carson City double eagle to be accessible to a range of collectors, though better circulated examples such as this AU53 coin are elusive and priced accordingly. Mildly reflective yellow-gold surfaces retain a surprising level of luster, and while numerous minor marks are present on each side, there are only a few flaws that are more serious. Population: 26 in 53, 52 finer (4/10).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26AE, PCGS# 8964, GSID# 9915)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 33.44 grams
AGW: 0.9675oz
Mintage: 26,900
