Liberty Double Eagles
1884-CC $20 MS62 PCGS. CAC. Variety 1-A. According to Mint records, 81,139 Liberty double eagles were struck at the Carson City Mint in 1884, a fairly generous production total in the context of the series. As might be expected, the 1884-CC is one of the more available Type Three issues from this facility and a popular choice of branch mint type collectors. The issue does become very scarce at the MS62 grade level, however, and finer specimens are very rare.
This impressive MS62 specimen exhibits sharply detailed design elements and frosty mint luster throughout. The pleasing orange-gold surfaces show a scattering of minor contact marks and luster grazes on both sides, with highlights of rose patina. The overall presentation is most attractive. Population: 78 in 62, 6 finer. CAC: 11 in 62, 3 finer (9/17).
