Condition Census Mint State 1885-CC Liberty Double Eagle 1885-CC Liberty Double Eagle. MS-61 (NGC). This is a prized example of this rare date in full Mint State condition. The surfaces are aglow with satiny luster and show the desired green hues over the golden-orange fields. Fully struck by the dies, with the beveled rims, again common to this issue as the coining equipment at the Carson City Mint had some challenges in forming these rims. Clean surfaces too, with minimal bagmarks and high visual appeal for the fact that so few bagmarks are present on Liberty's face or neck. Mintage of 9,450 pieces for the year and this tied with five others at this grade level behind a group of five more seen as MS-62. Incredible quality and eye appeal for the date or Carson City collector. PCGS# 9004. NGC Census: 6; 5 finer (MS-62 finest).
