1857 No Motto Twenty Dollar, MS61
Rare in Mint State

1857 $20 MS61 PCGS. While the 1857-S serves as the most available No Motto double eagle in Mint State thanks to S.S. Central America recoveries, this Philadelphia issue proves much more challenging. Doug Winter estimates only 40 to 60 pieces survive in Uncirculated condition. This MS61 offering is one of them. It features partial remaining mint frost that glistens over yellow and peach-gold surfaces. The stars are full and Liberty's curls are mostly crisp. Expectedly abraded with two small digs left of the 1 in the date. Population: 34 in 61, 38 finer (8/21).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2693, PCGS# 8920, Greysheet# 9793)

Weight: 33.44 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
