Description

Bold First-Year 1850 Double Eagle, MS62

1850 $20 MS62 NGC. While there are a few dozen Mint State pieces known of this issue, many more examples are known in the circulated grades from Very Fine to AU. All of them are the subject of intense demand, due to their prominent position as the first issue of our nation's largest circulating gold coin (save for the unique 1849 double eagle that is technically a pattern and a prize of the Smithsonian Institution). This lovely orange-gold specimen has bright semiprooflike fields and a few light abrasions that are consistent with the grade, but the overall eye appeal is high-end, and the bold strike is a plus. Census: 31 in 62, 13 finer (3/09).
