Liberty Double Eagles
1892-CC $20 MS61 PCGS. Variety 1-A. The rather small mintage of the 1892-CC double eagle (27,265 coins) was produced by a single die pair. This late-series Carson City issue is usually regarded as scarce in Mint State, but lower-grade Uncirculated coins like the present can be acquired by patient collectors. A hint of reflectivity in the fields is as seen on many examples of the issue, and is here complemented by original rose-gold and tangerine hues, with sharp definition on the design elements. Scattered light abrasions limit the grade. Higher-grade 1892-CC twenties are scarcer than the certified population figures would suggest, appearing at auction quite infrequently.
