1882-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-61 (NGC). Vivid orange and olive-gold patina is seen on both sides of this boldly to sharply defined example. It is lustrous throughout with semi-reflective fields. Only 39,140 double eagles were struck at the Carson City Mint in 1882. Most of these circulated extensively on the West Coast, although others were shipped overseas and found their way into European bank hoards. Q. David Bowers estimated an Uncirculated population of 70 to 100 examples when he wrote his emGuide Book of Double Eagles/em for Whitman in 2004. His estimate has stood the test of time. It is believed that many, and perhaps most of the high grade examples presently known have been imported from Europe in recent decades. Population reports are laden with resubmissions that do not represent different coins. What population reports do confirm is that this lovely Mint State example ranks among the finest 1882-CC double eagles available. From the Francesca Collection.
