1892 Double Eagle, MS61
Only 4,430 Circulation Strikes
Rarely Offered With CAC Approval

1892 $20 MS61 PCGS. CAC. This Philadelphia issue is a standout rarity within the latter part of the double eagle series, boasting the lowest mintage of any date from that point through 1907, when the Liberty Head motif was replaced with Saint-Gaudens' design. Only 4,430 circulation strikes were manufactured, plus 93 proofs. Although the 1892 did not see much circulation and was likely subject to exportation overseas, examples are rarely seen in Uncirculated condition. Apparently, a small group of exceptional coins was discovered 10 to 15 years ago, including an MS68 and an MS67 that reside in NGC holders, but the vast majority of Mint State 1892 twenties are in MS61 and MS62. These are very rarely found with CAC approval.

The 1892 was well-struck, as evidenced by this medium yellow-gold representative. Both sides display overt semiprooflikeness that remains relatively unaffected by scattered abrasions in the fields. Seldom offered in this quality and an opportunity to be taken advantage of. Population: 7 in 61, 16 finer. CAC: 1 in 61, 6 finer (11/17).
