Description

Conditionally Rare 1853-O Double Eagle

1853-O $20 AU58 NGC. This issue is very scarce in all grades. The vast majority of survivors are in VF to XF grade, and strictly graded AU or better pieces are seldom seen. The AU58 specimen offered here has pleasing, bright peach-gold color. The design elements are well impressed, save for a touch of softness on Liberty's hair. A few light to moderate abrasions are noted, the most noticeable located in the hair above Liberty's forehead. Overall, an attractive high-end AU coin.(#8910) (Registry values: N2998)
