Description

1873-S Double Eagle, MS62
CAC-Approved Closed 3 Coin

1873-S $20 Closed 3 MS62 PCGS. CAC. Most Uncirculated 1873-S double eagles have the Closed 3 date logotype, as seen here. Nonetheless, even Closed 3 coins are scarce in MS62, and such pieces are rare with CAC endorsement. PCGS and NGC combined list only seven finer submissions (11/22), none of which are approved by CAC at this time. The present coin is visually luminous, showing minimal abrasions throughout frosty orange-gold surfaces. The strike is sharp, and eye appeal exceeds expectations for the grade. This piece is among the most attractive 1873-S double eagles that we have seen in recent memory. Population: 71 in 62 (10 in 62+), 3 finer. CAC: 21 in 62, 0 finer (10/22).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26AK, PCGS# 8969, Greysheet# 9918)

Weight: 33.44 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
