Description

1882-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-58 (NGC).
A richly original orange-gold example with a sharp strike and ample mint luster on both sides. Only 39,140 double eagles were struck at the Nevada coinage facility in 1882 ($782,800 face value). 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 a circulated population of 900 to 1,200 or more examples when he wrote his Guide Book of Double Eagles back in 2004. His estimate has stood the test of time. Far finer than the typically encountered AU survivor, this premium quality coin is worthy of the strongest bids.
PCGS# 8997. NGC ID: 26BF.
From the Jones Collection.
