Description

1889-S Double Eagle, MS64
High-Grade With Blazing Silky Luster

1889-S $20 MS64 PCGS. Scintillating cartwheel luster covers light-gold surfaces with rose highlights and is not interrupted by notable abrasions. Strike is also impressive, with minimal missing details. Many 1889-S double eagles were exported overseas and subsequently repatriated. Their tenure in burlap sacks has caused significant bagmarks on most known examples, with the most prevalent grade being MS61 for NGC and MS62 for PCGS. This makes the present example an anomaly on the upper end of the grade distribution.(Registry values: N7079)
