1875-CC Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-53 (PCGS).，Endearing honey-orange surfaces are boldly defined with plenty of original mint luster remaining. In the mid 1870s, the Carson City Mint was able to process enough gold to step up production of double eagles, thanks in part to a deposit of $1.5 million in bullion in July of 1875, allowing 111,151 double eagles to be produced that year. This comparatively large output permitted a quantity of the coins to be used in the export trade, from which a small number of higher grade examples were later repatriated in the mid 20th century. With demand for double eagles from Carson City far outstripping supply, an appealing AU example of the issue is a highlight of any Western gold collection.，，
