Description

1866-S With Motto Twenty, AU58
Frosty Mint Luster

1866-S $20 Motto AU58 NGC. The 1866-S was produced both with and without the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The With Motto variant claims the higher mintage (more than 842,000 coins) and is thus more readily available, although the population thins in the upper AU grades and Mint State coins are significant rarities. For the budget-conscious collector seeking sharp detail and frosty luster, this near-Mint representative is hard to surpass. Both sides show considerable mint bloom with medium yellow-gold luster and just a touch of friction over the exposed areas of the fields and the high points of the devices. A few scattered abrasions are present, as is expected for the grade, but none are individually detracting. NGC lists 23 Mint State coins finer (6/15).
