Flashy 1874-CC Twenty, AU58
Ex: Bass

1874-CC $20 AU58 NGC. Ex: Bass. The 1874-CC double eagles are an issue that is fairly available in AU, but much more elusive once the Mint State levels are reached. This is a piece that would have traded as "Uncirculated" before the advent of certified grading, as just the merest whisper of rub--visible primarily as a slight color change on Liberty's cheek--keeps this coin from an MS62 or MS63 grade. The coloration is a typical (but desirable) apricot-gold, with nearly all of the luster remaining, bright semiprooflike fields, and a strong strike. NGC has certified only 17 pieces finer (9/09).
