1869-S Liberty Double Eagle, AU58
Elusive Issue in Mint State

1869-S $20 AU58 NGC. This attractive Type Two double eagle exhibits just a trace of friction on the strongly impressed design elements and the lustrous orange-gold surfaces show only minor abrasions in the fields. Much original mint luster is evident in sheltered areas and overall eye appeal is quite strong. The San Francisco Mint struck a respectable mintage of 686,750 Liberty double eagles in 1869, but the issue is somewhat scarce in AU58 condition, and Mint State coins are elusive.(Registry values: N1793)
