Description
1860-S $20 AU55 NGC. This date is considered one of the rarest emissions from the San Francisco Mint, behind the famous 1861-S Paquet Reverse, and any high grade 1866-S No Motto. This specimen is very well struck, with all the stars, Liberty's hair, and the eagle on the reverse being well defined. Some luster is still evident and there is a rich red-gold appearance, as is quite often found on double eagles of this era. There are a few small to moderate abrasions, particularly on the obverse, but these are really not a focal point that detracts from the pleasing appearance of this rarity.(#8931) (Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 269F, PCGS# 8931, Greysheet# 9898)
