Description

Bright AU55 1851-O Twenty

1851-O $20 AU55 NGC. A brilliant green-gold example, almost certainly minted from freshly mined California gold that was shipped to New Orleans for coinage production. The mintage of 315,000 coins was the largest output of double eagles at that facility. This lovely piece has considerable remaining luster with small abrasions peppered over each side, but none are of individual consequence.(Registry values: N1793)
