***Auction Highlight*** 1882-cc Gold Liberty Double Eagle $20 Graded ms62 details By SEGS. HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT - Up for Auction is a very scarce Carson City Double Eagle, the 1882-cc $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle, Variety 1-B. Only 39,140 Liberty double eagles were struck at the Carson City Mint in 1882, a small production total in absolute terms, but just about average in the context of the series, which is known for its low mintages. In fact, no twenty dollar coins were struck at Carson City in the previous two years. Still, the 1882-CC is definitely elusive in MS62 condition, and finer coins are virtually unobtainable. The present coin is a pleasing MS62 details representative, with nicely detailed design elements throughout. Some Light hairlines account for the details grade. A thin die crack runs through the tops of the letters in most of the reverse legend, and a vertical spike is evident in front of Liberty's eye. The vivid orange-gold surfaces are fairly marked for the grade and mint luster remains in the protected areas. A scarce coin in uncirculated condition. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
