Liberty Double Eagles
1889-CC $20 AU53 NGC. CAC. Variety 1-A. Housed in a previous generation holder with CAC endorsement, this still-lustrous 1889-CC displays sharp definition at the borders and remarkably few abrasions for the assigned grade -- both characteristics that are often lacking for the issue. Attractive orange-gold surfaces retain much of their original luster. Just 30,945 pieces were struck in the resumption of minting operations at the Carson City Mint in 1889. CAC: 9 in 53, 42 finer (1/17).
