Lot 4799
1890-CC $20 Liberty. NGC graded MS-61. Light golden toning. Semi reflective surfaces. Frosty and relatively free of contact for this lesser-seen Carson Mint issue, a coin with a little light layering of golden-orange patina on each side. The few small bagmarks that are seen in the fields and on the obverse device are relatively slight, and only serve to limit the grade to MS61 and not something finer. This affordable example is from shortly before the end of the Carson City Mint's existence when double eagle production reached its highest ever before the government unceremoniously pulled the mint's budget and sent it off into the history books. Pop 62; 27 finer in 62 (PCGS # 9014) .
Estimated Value $3,500 - 3,800.
