Description

1856-S $20 AU50 NGC. Bold devices are set off from the fields by hints of luster that remain in the protected areas. This green-gold AU coin displays the usual scattered abrasions of the grade. The 1856-S is a popular date, made famous by the discovery of numerous examples on the S.S. Central America shipwreck. The present coin is not pedigreed to the underwater treasure.
