Description
Splendid 1889 Double Eagle, MS62
1889 $20 MS62 PCGS. The 1889 double eagle is a surprisingly scarce date with a mintage of just 44,070 coins. Few have survived in any grade, and Mint State coins are especially elusive. The surfaces of this piece are lightly frosted with splendid cartwheel luster throughout. A few minor abrasions barely affect the flow of the outstanding. PCGS has certified only 15 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2695, PCGS# 9010, GSID# 9824)
