Description

Important MS62 1893-CC Twenty

1893-CC $20 MS62 PCGS. CAC. The 1893-CC is the last of the Carson City double eagle issues. Its mintage of 18,402 pieces ensures its scarcity. PCGS has yet to certify any examples above MS63; although the present example falls just short of that level, it may be that a high-end MS62 provides ideal value for the 1893-CC. This lot has vibrant cartwheel luster and pleasing canary-gold color. Faint obverse marks are present, but none impact the formidable eye appeal. The reverse is minimally abraded, save for a pair of concealed marks within the horizontal shield lines. A desirable and delectable selection for the advanced CC-mint specialist.(Registry values: N2998)
