Lot 2097
1878-CC. PCGS graded AU-53. Only 13,180 struck. A nice frosty coin. The 1878-CC twenty is one that takes a great deal of hunting to find, being a low mintage issue that enjoys continual demand from gold collectors and Carson City specialists in turn. Perhaps fewer than a dozen Mint State survivors are accounted for, and these are very expensive, lending added importance to those that come within reach of Mint State quality. This attractive, shimmering representative is only lightly abraded for the grade and CC-mintmark. It shows only the slightest interruption of luster on the high points of the design. Desirable quality for a sought-after CC date. Pop 22; 34 finer (PCGS # 8986) .
Estimated Value $6,500 - 7,500.
