Description

Significant MS61 1860-S Twenty
Among the Finest Pedigreed to a Shipwreck

1860-S $20 MS61 NGC. Ex: S.S. Republic. A boldly struck and beautiful example that has exceptional eye appeal for the grade. A strike-through near obverse star 12 is of mint origin. The 1860-S remains rare in Mint State despite shipwreck hoards. Only a single Mint State 1860-S was recovered from the S.S. Brother Jonathan, and only three Mint State coins emerged from the S.S. Republic. The treasure ship gold specialist will find the 1860-S challenging, and the present lot will provide the best opportunity to secure a quality example. Census: 15 in 61, 4 finer (9/07).
