Description

1873-S Liberty Head Twenty, MS61
Scarce Closed 3 Variety

1873-S $20 Closed 3 MS61 PCGS. CAC. From an unknown, but certainly small mintage, the 1873-S Closed 3 double eagle is a scarce issue in any Mint State grade. The present coin is well struck, showing a little softness on Liberty's hair. The surfaces are light orange-gold with soft satiny luster. A scattering of minor handling marks on both sides is consistent with the grade. Population: 86 in 61, 20 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N2998)
