High Grade Circulated 1859-S Liberty Twenty

1859-S $20 AU 58 NGC. This is an exceptionally frosty coin for the grade whose surfaces are the lightest rub away from Mint State. Scattered abrasions are present on both sides, but the only individually mentionable distractions are confined to the obverse over and before Liberty's portrait. The color is a warm, golden-rose shade with blushes of crimson patina intermingled throughout.
From the Helyn Van Huffel Collection.
