Lot Description

1892-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. EF-40 (NGC). Uncommonly lustrous for the assigned grade, this inviting example also retains sharp striking detail throughout the design. Handsome olive-orange patina blankets both sides and further enhance this coin's appearance. With fewer than 2,000 coins believed extant in all grades, the 1892-CC is scarce relative to the demand for both Liberty Head double eagles and Carson City Mint coinage among today's specialized gold collectors. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS# 9020. NGC ID: 26C6. Click here for certification details from NGC.
