Description

1893-CC $20 XF45 PCGS. Delightful olive-gold patina covers both sides of this low-mintage double eagle. Significant amounts of luster are still present in the protected areas, which is pleasantly surprising for the grade. There are no marks worthy of mention, and even wear throughout. Only 18,402 double eagles were struck in the final year of this popular branch mint. (Registry values: N1793)
