Description

1893-CC MS 62. In its final year of production, the New Orleans mint produced just 18,402 double eagles and the vast majority of those found their way in circulation. This wholly original specimen displays fewer and less serious abrasions than the hundred or so mint state pieces entering the market in the last ten years and, as such, is very near condition census for this popular CC twenty.
