1857-S Double Eagle, MS65
Ex: S.S. Central America, CAC-Endorsed

1857-S $20 Spiked Shield, Variety 20A, MS65 PCGS. CAC. Ex: S.S. Central America. SSCA 4985. Housed in its original gold foil holder with CAC approval, this Gem No Motto double eagle represents the well-known Spiked Shield variety, with a gouge through the left shield border seen on a majority of S.S. Central America recoveries. Peach-gold surfaces are characteristically frosted. Liberty's curls, and the eagle's wing and neck feathers display pinpoint definition. The peripheral elements are well-struck, but not quite to the same extent as the centers. Phenomenal visual appeal, and a wonderful Type One representative.(Registry values: P2)
