Lovely 1863-S Double Eagle, Choice AU

1863-S $20 AU55 NGC. Pleasing orange-gold patina drapes the surfaces of this popular Civil War-era type coin. This issue is typically seen heavily abraded, and this piece is no exception, but it has no marks that merit individual mention. Lots of luster present in the fields enhances the eye appeal. A die crack from the rim to the EN in TWENTY is noted. (Registry values: N1793)
