1889-CC Liberty Gold Double Eagle ($20) OGH

The 1889-CC $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle represents a key date from the Carson City Mint, with a modest mintage of just 30,945 pieces. Carson City gold coins from this era are particularly desirable, as many were melted or lost to time, making survivors increasingly scarce. The 1889-CC is especially notable as one of the more challenging dates from this mint.

This VF35 example, certified by PCGS, housed in a classic OGH, and approved by CAC, shows honest wear from circulation yet retains strong design elements throughout and heaps of underlying luster. The surfaces display a pleasing honey-gold color and are remarkably clean for the grade, free from the heavy marks or damage often seen on circulated CC gold. The eye appeal is exceptional for a circulated Carson City double eagle, with no distracting marks or issues that would detract from its appearance.
