1876-S Twenty Dollar, MS64
CAC-Approved Type Two Coin

1876-S $20 MS64 PCGS. CAC. The 1876-S has a large Mint State survivorship -- that, plus its status as a final-year Type Two issue, makes it a popular type coin. Nonetheless, collectors will usually select only from coins in MS63 and lower grades, as near-Gems are rare, and only a handful of higher-grade pieces are known. Opportunities to acquire coins like the present are seldom encountered. We have seen only a handful of coins in this grade during the last decade, and we have only ever handled a single numerically finer coin.

This example displays vibrant orange-gold mint luster and a bold strike, with relatively minimal marks for the grade. A small coppery toning spot at the tip of Liberty's nose serves as a pedigree marker. Eye appeal is pleasing, earning CAC endorsement. Population: 16 in 64 (3 in 64+), 1 finer. CAC: 5 in 64, 1 finer (6/24).(Registry values: N7079)
