Description

1883-CC Double Eagle, MS61
Colorful, Lustrous Surfaces

1883-CC $20 MS61 PCGS. Variety 2-A. The 1883-CC Liberty double eagle claims a mintage of 59,962 pieces, a small total by modern standards but quite substantial in the context of the series. The 1883-CC was also a well-produced issue, and the relative availability of high-quality examples makes this issue a favorite choice of mintmark type collectors. The present coin offers an above average strike for a Carson City issue, with fine detail in Liberty's hair. The vivid orange-gold surfaces radiate vibrant mint luster and show only minor signs of contact. Eye appeal is quite strong. Population: 45 in 61, 26 finer (3/14).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26BH, PCGS# 8999, Greysheet# 9937)
