Description

1862-S Liberty Twenty, MS63
Tied for the Finest Certified

1862-S $20 MS63 NGC. CAC. Although we are unable to say if this piece is a recent treasure coin or a piece passed down through generations, it is an important specimen that is tied for the finest that either NGC or PCGS has certified. The discoveries of the S.S. Republic and S.S. Brother Jonathan treasures have made the Type One double eagles of the 1860s far more collectible today than two or three decades ago.
This impressive Select Mint State double eagle exhibits rich orange-gold color with frosty luster and sharp design features on each side. The surfaces have the usual quota of small marks, none singularly noticeable. Census: 3 in 63, 0 finer (1/11).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 269N, PCGS# 8938, Greysheet# 9902)

Weight: 33.44 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
