Bright 1878 MS62 Double Eagle

1878 $20 MS62 PCGS. PCGS and NGC population data indicate that the 1878 double eagle is readily available from About Uncirculated to MS61. MS62s are somewhat more difficult to locate and Select and near-Gems are elusive. Neither service has graded any pieces higher. Bright luster adorns this sharply struck MS62 example. The peach-gold surfaces reveal minute grade-limiting marks.(Registry values: N1793)
