Description

Appealing 1893-CC Double Eagle, MS62 PCGS

1893-CC $20 MS62 PCGS. Although only 18,402 1893-CC Double Eagles were reported struck (a limited number, even by the standards of this particular branch mint), this issue is among the more easily obtainable CC-mint Twenties in high grades. Uncirculated survivors are rarer than only those of the 1875-CC, 1884-CC, and 1890-CC productions. Advanced type collectors should enjoy bidding on this satiny, orange-gold representative. Scattered tiny abrasions account for the grade, but the sharply defined surfaces have eye appeal to spare. An always-popular issue from the final year of coinage operations at the Carson City Mint.(#9023) (Registry values: N2998)
