The 1893-CC $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle, graded PCGS XF-45, stands as the final gold double eagle struck at the legendary Carson City Mint. Minted in a mere 18,402 pieces, this coin closed a chapter that began in 1870, when the remote Nevada facility first produced the iconic $20 gold pieces that fueled America’s frontier economy. Its sharply detailed XF-45 surfaces retain bold legends and a softly luminous sheen, testifying to honest circulation through the rugged Old West.
PCGS has graded 58 examples as XF45 with 765 finer. Collector’s Universe (CU) prices this issue at $8,750 in XF45. Thus, you will SAVE $2,250 OFF the CU price when you buy this coin!
Carson City’s “CC” mintmark evokes images of silver and gold booms, stagecoach routes, and Comstock Lode fortunes. This last double eagle embodies that era’s grit and grandeur—an authentic relic handled by miners, merchants, and gamblers before finding sanctuary in the Rainy Day Collection. Every remaining design element, from Liberty’s coronet to the heraldic eagle, whispers of a mint that operated only twenty-three years yet left an indelible numismatic legacy.
