Description

Scarce Near-Mint 1908-S Twenty

1908-S $20 AU58 PCGS. The 1908-S mintage quickly draws the attention of accumulators. Only 22,000 pieces were struck, and survivors are scarce relative to the voracious demand. This example has full luster and minimal friction, but the obverse field is somewhat abraded, and the eagle has a few distributed ticks.
