Description

Near-Mint 1855-S Double Eagle
Ex: S.S. Central America

1855-S $20 AU58 PCGS. Ex: S.S. Central America. SSCA 6263. Variety 14A, Broken A, Full E. Unlike the fresh and glittering 1857-S double eagles found aboard the S.S. Central America, earlier-dated examples had often circulated briefly, as is the case with this near-Mint example. Despite modest friction, however, the luster of the lemon-yellow and butter-gold surfaces is virtually intact. Comes with faux-book case and outer box; the certificate of authenticity is missing, but the PCGS holder offers its own assurance. Population: 37 in 58, 18 finer (6/09).
