Description

1892-CC Liberty Twenty, MS61
Branch Mint Semikey Date

1892-CC $20 MS61 NGC. Winter 1-A. The last few issues of Carson City Mint double eagles were heavily exported at the bidding of the Treasury. As Comstock Lode yields declined, so did production, and higher percentages were exported or went directly into circulation. While hoard discoveries have supplemented Mint State numbers in more recent years, the issue is conditionally scarce with NGC showing only 159 Mint State pieces with the sole highest example at just MS64 (6/25). This boldly struck Branch Mint example features khaki-gold surfaces accented with faint tinges of orange and lavender. Devices show rich, frosty luster on highly reflective fields that deliver luminous eye appeal. A few tiny die grease marks attest to its original state, and typical myriad bagmarks define the grade.(Registry values: N2998)
