Description

Reddish Tinted, Lustrous MS62 1856-S Twenty

1856-S $20 MS62 PCGS. Large numbers of 1857-S and 1856-S double eagles were found in the salvage operations on the S.S. Central America 20 years ago. This coin is not designated as one of those pieces, but in all probability it is. The surfaces have a deep, even reddish hue and the underlying mint luster is especially strong for an MS62. A few light, inoffensive marks account for the grade.(Registry values: N2998)
