Liberty Double Eagles
1893-CC $20 MS60 NGC. Variety 2-A. The 1893-CC was not particularly well-saved domestically despite being the final-year issue for the venerable Nevada Mint. Rather, many pieces were exported and have, in recent decades, found their way back into the hands of U.S. collectors. This Mint State example is finer than most 1893-CC twenties. Smooth fields show a scattering of tiny abrasions and shallow lines, while a few additional marks are seen on the portrait. Copper spotting is a common characteristic among 1893-CC double eagles, but it is absent on this coin.
