Description
1852-O Twenty, AU58
Impressive Eye Appeal
1852-O $20 AU58 PCGS. CAC. Variety 1. Our consignor has a
wonderful run of double eagles in this sale, characterized by an
uncanny eye for coins at the highest end of their grade level with
remarkable surface quality. This near-Mint twenty is exceptionally
appealing in that regard. Considerable prooflikeness remains at the
margins, surrounded by immaculate rims and sharp dentils. The rich,
gold color displays orange highlights and unquestioned originality.
Liberty's portrait shows only a few ticklike marks, while the
obverse fields have no heavy hits whatsoever -- just light
abrasions that do not distract. The reverse is considerably more
prooflike than the obverse, and the coin presents a bold strike
throughout. An easy CAC approval greeted this attractive example.
Population: 33 in 58 (1 in 58+), 13 finer (6/14).From The Charles G. Wright Family Collection.(Registry values: N1793)
