Description

1872-S Double Eagle, MS61
Upper-End for the Grade

1872-S $20 MS61 PCGS. Ex: The Gilded Age Collection. Remarkably smooth, satiny surfaces showcase luminous wheat-gold luster and the occasional glint of deeper honey and peach color. The design elements are well-defined, and the surfaces exhibit fewer abrasions than expected for the grade. An unusually eye-appealing 1872-S twenty, with few coins numerically superior. NGC reports 18 numerically higher grading events (12/24).(Registry values: N2998)
From The Mississippi Collection of Double Eagles.
