Exemplary Gem 1875-CC Twenty Cent

1875-CC 20C MS65 NGC. Dappled lavender-gray toning drapes this Gem Carson City type coin. Luster rolls across the smooth surfaces. The strike is bold save for a few central breast feathers. Promoted by silver interests, the twenty cent denomination was short-lived, as it was readily confused with a quarter. Census: 33 in 65, 5 finer (6/09).(Registry values: N4719)
