Too many steps to set up an account. I had an account many years ago in a gold IRA and was very pleased with your company

The 1876-CC $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle holds a special place in American numismatics as a coin that brings together rarity, historical context, and the romance of the Old West. Struck at the legendary Carson City Mint, this coin represents both the final chapter of the Type 2 Liberty Head design and the Centennial year of the United States. Collectors prize Carson City gold for its low mintages, its direct link to the silver and gold rushes of Nevada, and its reputation for scarce survivors. The 1876-CC is no exception, and when certified at AU55 by NGC and approved by CAC, it stands out as a piece of both historical and numismatic significance.

The Carson City Mint began operations in 1870, created specifically to turn the gold and silver from Nevada’s Comstock Lode into coinage. The facility quickly gained a reputation for producing coins in smaller numbers compared to the larger mints in Philadelphia and San Francisco. This fact alone has made coins with the “CC” mintmark highly desirable across all U.S. coin series. With the 1876-CC Double Eagle, the appeal is heightened because this coin was struck during the hundredth anniversary of the United States. Collectors often appreciate Centennial year coins for the symbolic tie to America’s growth, perseverance, and identity one hundred years after the Revolution.

The design of this piece reflects the artistry of James B. Longacre, the fourth Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. The obverse depicts Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with the word “Liberty,” framed by stars representing the states in the Union. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, with a bold shield at its center and the motto “In God We Trust” placed above. This motto had been added in 1866, marking the beginning of the Type 2 design which would continue until 1876. Therefore, this particular coin is from the final year of the Type 2 Liberty Head Double Eagle, making it not only historically meaningful but also a key type coin for collectors building complete design sets.

Graded About Uncirculated 55 by NGC, this coin retains much of its original detail and luster, showing only light circulation wear that is visible under close inspection. The AU55 grade is a desirable balance between affordability and eye appeal, offering sharp design definition without the significant premiums attached to Mint State examples. The additional approval from CAC confirms that the coin meets a strict standard of quality for its grade. CAC-approved coins are increasingly sought after in today’s market, as they provide an extra measure of assurance that the coin is solid for the grade and has not been overvalued.

The survival rate of Carson City Double Eagles is notably low, as most of these coins were heavily circulated in the commerce of the American West or melted in later decades. As a result, finding a 1876-CC in any collectible condition is a challenge. Examples in higher About Uncirculated grades with CAC approval are considered strong holdings for collectors who want both rarity and certification backing.

For investors, this coin represents a tangible link to America’s gold legacy and a hedge against uncertain economic conditions. For collectors, it is a chance to own a piece of Western history, tied directly to the mining boom and the U.S. Centennial celebration. The combination of the Carson City Mintmark, the final year of the Type 2 design, and the CAC seal of quality make this an exceptional example of a Double Eagle that will appeal to both seasoned collectors and those building a focused Carson City or Liberty Head gold collection.

Owning the 1876-CC $20 Liberty Double Eagle NGC AU55 CAC is more than simply holding a coin. It is an opportunity to possess a piece of American heritage, struck in the heart of the West at a time when the nation was celebrating one hundred years of freedom. Its rarity, condition, and symbolism converge to create a numismatic treasure that is admired by both historians and collectors alike.

A LITTLE STICKER MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE.

Within each number of the coin grading scale is a small range of condition from low-end to high-end. Certified coins of the same grade can be of varying quality. Many of today’s collectors want coins that are solid or premium quality for their assigned grade. CAC holds coins to a higher standard so you can be confident in the value of yours. We verify previously graded coins … and award our sticker only to those coins that meet the standard for today’s selective buyer.

WHAT THE CAC STICKER MEANS:

  • Verified. Your coin has been verified as meeting the standard for strict quality within its grade.
  • Guaranteed. CAC stands behind our verification.

THE CAC STICKER IS BACKED BY EXPERIENCE.

CAC was founded by leading members of the numismatic community, including John Albanese, a respected authority on coin grading and the rare coin market.
