Description

Condition Scarcity 1891-CC Double Eagle, AU55

1891-CC $20 AU55 NGC. The 1891-CC has the second lowest mintage figure (5,000 pieces) of any double eagle from the Carson City Mint, trailing only the 1870-CC. Despite the small mintage, it is more available in circulated grades than one might expect. The issue is scarce in About Uncirculated, however, and rare in Mint State. The certified population includes only one MS63 and none finer.
Mint-green and peach-gold patina covers both sides of this Choice AU specimen, and luster resides in the protected areas. The design elements are well defined, and each side reveals just a few minor surface and rim marks.(Registry values: N2998)
