1853 Liberty Double Eagle, MS62
Conditionally Rare No Motto Issue

1853 $20 MS62 PCGS. Doug Winter calls the 1853 No Motto double eagle "quite rare and undervalued" in Mint State. The issue claims a sizeable production of 1.2 million coins and is roughly as available overall as the 1851 and 1852, but probably only 30 to 40 coins survive in Uncirculated condition. NGC reports merely six numerically finer submissions, while PCGS lists seven beyond the MS62 level (12/25).

Vibrant mint luster shines from the lightly marked orange-gold surfaces. Liberty's curls are incredibly strong, as are the eagle's neck and wing feathers. A few stray hairlines and minor ticks on both sides define the grade.(Registry values: N4719)
