Description

1889-S Twenty Dollar, MS64
Clean With Pinpoint-Sharp Detail

1889-S $20 MS64 NGC. Tall S. While only three-quarters of a million 1889-S double eagles were minted, examples can be found through MS63 and even near-Gems are obtainable for a price. However, anything finer than this will likely prove out of reach. Clean yellow-gold surfaces display pinpoint definition and frosty cartwheel luster. Census: 48 in 64 (9 in 64+, 1 in 64+ ), 9 finer (3/23).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26BW, PCGS# 9012, Greysheet# 9946)

Weight: 33.44 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
