Description

1883-CC Double Eagle, AU58
Remarkably Unabraded for the Grade

1883-CC $20 AU58 PCGS. CAC. Variety 2-A. The surfaces are noticeably less bagmarked than even some Mint State examples of this popular Carson City issue. Reddish-gold luster peeks out around the sharply struck portrait and creeps into the surrounding fields on the obverse, while the reverse displays a more generous portion of remaining mint luster. A pair of short marks -- one beneath the chin, the other on the neck -- are noted, but they are of little consequence for the grade. Orange and green accents enhance the natural, medium-gold coloration.(Registry values: N1793)
