1891-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS).

Eagerly Sought Low Mintage 1891-CC Double Eagle Rare Mint State Quality 1891-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS). Displaying deep golden-wheat color with intermingled apricot highlights, this is a beautiful and conditionally rare example of a key date Carson City Mint double eagle. Sharply to fully struck with bountiful, nicely frosted mint luster. Uncommonly smooth and inviting for the assigned grade, and worthy of a strong premium. With just 5,000 pieces produced, the 1891-CC is the lowest mintage Carson City Mint double eagle of the 1889 to 1893 era. Circulation on the West Coast was immediate and extensive, although a couple of thousand examples were probably exported after acquiring wear. Most of those coins were melted overseas, although a few hundred have been repatriated in recent decades, to the delight of collectors who would otherwise not be able to obtain an example of this key date $20. The majority of the repatriated coins are worn to one degree or another, and Mint State survivors number only 26 to 35 examples (per Rusty Goe, 2020). This is one of the few examples at this level that we have offered in recent decades, and it remains a leading highlight of our extensive double eagle offerings from the Fairmont Collection. Provenance: From our sale of the Fairmont Collection - Kronen Set, November 2023 Auction, lot 5355. PCGS Population: 10; 23 finer (MS-63 finest). PCGS# 9017. NGC ID: 26C3.
