Wonderful 1875 Double Eagle, MS62

1875 $20 MS62 ICG. Other gold denominations from 1875 were struck in exceptionally low quantities at the Philadelphia Mint, which makes the double eagle a popular representative of the date. Despite its relative availability, however, the 1875 twenty is difficult in grades above MS60. Radiant cartwheel luster shimmers beneath the rose and yellow patina. Scattered abrasions define the grade, but none are significant. There is a little weakness on the hair, as typical, but the remaining details are boldly impressed. A wonderful and better grade type coin.(Registry values: N2998)
