<B>1872-CC $10 XF45 PCGS. CAC.</B></I> While the Carson City Mint in 1872 increased its double eagle output more than 50% over the previous year, from 17,387 to 26,900 coins, it simultaneously managed to roughly half its eagle output compared to 1871, from 8,085 coins to 4,600 <I>(Guide Book</B></I> figure; Rusty Goe reports 5,500). To this day, both NGC and PCGS have yet to certify a single Mint State piece, although a handful of AU coins are known. This Choice XF specimen offers wonderfully lustrous orange-gold surfaces, tinged with amber at the rims, that show a few light abrasions consistent with a short spate in circulation. Population: 12 in 45, 11 finer (3/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
