Expert Comments

David Akers (1975/88)

The 1883-CC is one of the more common Carson City Mint Double Eagles, rarer than only the 1876-CC, 1890-CC, 1884-CC and 1875-CC. The 1883-CC is available in a wide range of grades from VF to average uncirculated. Better than Unc-60, the population thins out quickly and although choice mint state specimens are known, they are quite rare.
