Description
Scarce AU58 1851 Double Eagle
1851 $20 AU58 NGC. The 1851 double eagle is less common than what might be assumed from its mintage exceeding 2 million pieces. It is most often seen in VF or XF condition. AU coins, especially high-end pieces such as this AU58, are scarce. Considerable luster is apparent on the yellow-gold surfaces that exhibit well defined motifs. Light circulation marks are undisturbing.(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 268H, PCGS# 8904, GSID# 9786)
