Difficult MS62 1876-CC Twenty

1876-CC $20 MS62 NGC. CAC. Carson City double eagles all have mintages that are much lower than the San Francisco issues from the same year. For example, the 1876-S mintage is more than ten times that of its CC-mint counterpart. The 1876-CC is typically encountered in XF or AU grades, and is very scarce in Mint State. The present example has substantial luster and rich orange-gold toning. The strike is precise throughout. Marks are refreshingly few, and are inoffensive for the MS62 level. A hint of struck-in grease (as made) near the date will identify this important piece, which is housed in a former generation holder. Census: 52 in 62, 5 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)
