1893-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS).Rich yellow-gold hues surround the devices of this rare Carson City issue, complementing the pale medium-gold patina. Just a hint of friction is visible across the high points and the surfaces are otherwise without distracting marks. A lustrous and nicely struck example. 1893 ended up being the Carson Citys swan song. Cleveland won a second non-consecutive term and his administration set about closing the facility down. Even though only 18,402 1893-CC double eagles ended up being struck before the Carson City Mint closed its doors for the final time, this is a relatively available issue. Unlike some similar issues from the period, this is a conditionally challenging issue seldom found in grade levels above EF. A rewarding and attractive example of the final Carson City double eagle issue.
