Description

1858-S Twenty Dollar, MS61
Underappreciated S-Mint Issue

1858-S $20 MS61 NGC. Unlike the 1856-S and '57-S, the 1858-S double eagle does not claim a large survivorship as a result of shipwreck discoveries. This well-circulated issue is rarely offered in any Mint State grade, and only a few such pieces are finer than the present MS61 coin. The piece offered here is exceptional for the grade. It is well-struck and fully lustrous, showing warm peach-gold and pale rose hues over each side. Grade-limiting abrasions appear in the form of light handling marks and are barely noticed by the unaided eye. Census: 17 in 61, 3 finer (11/18).
