Description

1860-S Double Eagle, MS61
Conditionally Scarce and Underrated

1860-S $20 MS61 PCGS. Medium S. Doug Winter calls the 1860-S double eagle (544,950 coins struck) "a scarce and underrated date in higher grades." He estimates 50 to 75 coins survive in Mint State. This MS61 representative, which features a die crack up through the 8 in the date, remains partly frosty with baggy yellow-gold surfaces and a typical strike. A few dark spots occur on each side. Population: 20 in 61, 13 finer (2/22).
