Description

1890-CC Double Eagle, MS60
Semireflective Fields

1890-CC $20 MS60 NGC. Variety 1-A. This is a late die state example, showing the eagle's outer tailfeathers partially effaced by die lapping. The design elements are sharply rendered and the surfaces display vibrant green-gold luster. Scattered abrasions determine the grade, although this is a minor complaint on a Mint State Carson City twenty.
