1850 Twenty Dollar, AU58
Original Patina

1850 $20 AU58 NGC. Legislation for a twenty dollar gold coin was approved by Congress in response to the discovery of gold in California. The debut Philadelphia issue of this denomination is readily available, although less so in Mint State. The current near-Mint coin offers an accessible option for the collector of first-year type coins. A bold strike remains despite light wear, while scattered abrasions contribute to the grade assessment. Lustrous peach and greenish-gold surfaces are original.(Registry values: N1793)
