1883-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS).

1883-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS).，Pleasing deep gold surfaces are boldly to sharply defined with a refreshingly original appearance. Gold coin production at Carson City in 1883 was up significantly over the previous year courtesy of large deposits of bullion from the local mines. Despite this, double eagle mintages remained only modest with only 59,962 pieces struck that year. Used more and more for international payments in addition to its regional commercial use, the 1883-CC double eagle issue is plagued more by serious bag marks and other surface abrasions typical of long term storage. Primarily found in lower states of preservation, pleasing AU examples are especially sought after by collectors seeking a representative specimen of the issue.，，
