Description
1893-CC Double Eagle, MS62
Attractive, Final-Year Carson City Issue
1893-CC $20 MS62 PCGS. Winter 1-A. A low-mintage issue with
just 18,402 pieces made, the 1893-CC twenty is best known as the
final double eagle date struck at the Carson City Mint. Most of the
production went overseas, and few coins circulated domestically. As
a result, the issue is found as often in Mint State than in
circulated grades, because many of the exported twenties have
returned to the United States. This lustrous and well-struck
sun-gold representative is smooth for its grade aside from a few
moderate bagmarks on the left obverse field. It is from Winter 1-A
dies, a scarcer marriage than its Winter 1-B alternative.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 6/2014), lot 4945.(Registry values: N2998)
