The Carson City Mint saw double eagle production dwindle to just 9,450 pieces in 1885, down from 81,139 coins in 1884. That represented an 88% decline in the number of twenty-dollar gold pieces put out from one year to the next. This would also be the last year coins were struck in Nevada until 1889. The 1885-CC double eagle boasts a surviving population of a few hundred coins, perhaps 400 or so pieces by Rusty Goe’s estimate. The NGC population is 57 with 79 graded higher.
Listed at $30,600 in the CDN CPG and $36,500 in the NGC population report.
