Description

Remarkable 1871-S Double Eagle, AU58

1871-S $20 AU58 NGC. Although common in low grades with a mintage of nearly a million pieces, the 1871-S can be elusive in high AU and is difficult to locate in Mint State. A trace of light rub on the obverse keeps this lightly marked piece from Uncirculated. The above-average eye appeal is enhanced by strong luster throughout. (Registry values: N991)
