Lustrous Choice AU 1892-CC Double Eagle

1892-CC $20 AU55 PCGS. Rusty Goe notes in The Mint on Carson Street that by 1892 Comstock Lode miners were "beginning to scrape bottom in their search for more gold ore," despite which sufficient bullion was deposited to manage a respectable double eagle mintage of 27,265 pieces. Considerable numbers of the 1892-CC, from the penultimate year of Carson City mintage, appear to have been saved. This piece offers splendid eye appeal over the apricot-gold surfaces, with good luster and relatively few marks for the grade. (Registry values: N1793)
