Description

1873-CC Double Eagle

1873-CC $20 PCGS Genuine. The PCGS number ending in .94 suggests Altered Surfaces as the reason, or perhaps one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of an XF specimen that has been cleaned. The lemon-yellow luster on each side is glassy and inconsistent with the level of remaining detail, and several significant abrasions appear on the cheek. Despite these flaws, an important Carson City dollar that should see considerable bidding action.

Note for clients in the European Union: This lot is considered by the European Union to be “investment gold”. We believe that it meets the criteria established in Article 344(1), point (2) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC and thus should be exempt from import VAT regardless of the selling price. Any questions or concerns about VAT should be addressed to your accountant or local tax authority.
