1883-CC Double Eagle, MS62
Excellent Luster and Color

1883-CC $20 MS62 PCGS Secure. Variety 2-A. The 1883-CC double eagle is generally available in most grades, but one look at the certified population figures reveals tremendous conditional rarity in MS62 and finer levels. We have previously handled only a dozen coins in MS62 or MS62+, including at least one reappearance of the same coin. Heritage has not offered a finer example since 2004, and we are not aware of a finer coin being offered at auction anywhere since 2009.

This rare MS62 coin displays sharp detail and minimally abraded, satiny surfaces with vibrant cartwheel luster. Rich orange-gold color is especially pleasing. Population: 24 in 62 (1 in 62+), 4 finer (5/18).(Registry values: N4719)
