Description

Bold AU 1878-CC Double Eagle

1878-CC $20 AU50 NGC. Light field chatter and small abrasions appear on each side of this Carson City Mint rarity--one created by the launch of the Morgan dollar in the same year--but some prooflikeness also appears, along with the light wear expected for the grade. The strike is boldly executed, and the eye appeal is high.(Registry values: N2998)
