Incredible Premium Gem 1875-CC Twenty Cent

1875-CC 20C MS66 PCGS. This odd denomination is always popular with collectors, and the 1875-CC, as the only readily collectible Carson City issue from the short-lived series, enjoys enduring demand across all grade levels. For the numismatist who demands only the finest examples, this Premium Gem is a worthy pursuit. The overall detail is pleasing, if slightly soft on Liberty's head, and the central devices exhibit delightful frostiness. The fields, which show heavy die polishing lines, are strongly reflective beneath soft gold-tinged patina that yields to deeper orange and blue-green close to the margins. One of just four MS66 examples graded by PCGS, with none finer (6/08).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23R6, PCGS# 5297, Greysheet# 5039)
