1874-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. EF-45 (PCGS). An attractive Choice EF example with sandy-gold patina and hints of pink color in the protected areas. Uniformly bold and heavily lustrous across the fields. This 1874-CC comes highly recommended for inclusion in an advanced collection of Liberty Head and/or Carson City Mint gold coinage. The 1874-CC has the highest mintage in the Carson City Mint eagle series up to that time. The 16,767-piece mintage is nearly as great as the combined deliveries for the 1870-CC, 1871-CC, 1872-CC and 1873-CC. While the 1874-CC is the most frequently encountered CC-Mint ten from its decade, fewer than 500 coins are believed extant in all grades. From the Naples Bay Collection.
