1890-CC $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle AU-53 NGC
In 1890, the Carson City Mint in Nevada struck a limited run of just 91,209 twenty-dollar gold pieces. This Liberty Gold Double Eagle represents a fascinating chapter in American minting history, originating from the famous frontier facility nestled near the silver and gold mines of the American West. Bearing the distinctive CC mint mark, this coin is a tangible survivor of late nineteenth-century commerce. Crafted from 0.900 fine gold, this double eagle contains 0.9675 troy ounces of precious metal. The obverse prominently displays the classic Liberty design alongside the year 1890. This specific specimen has been certified by professional grading services as About Uncirculated 53 (AU-53), indicating it saw only minimal circulation before being preserved for future generations to study and appreciate.
