Description
Exceptional 1890 Double Eagle, MS64
1890 $20 MS64 PCGS. CAC. An amazing condition rarity, and a scarce date outright, the 1890 double eagle is seldom encountered in the rare coin marketplace. This near-Gem specimen is tied for the finest that PCGS has certified. It has bold design definition with fully brilliant and frosty orange-gold luster. While critical examination with a magnifier reveals a few trivial blemishes that are consistent with the grade, a first look at this piece suggest a coin of Gem quality. Here is an amazing opportunity for the connoisseur to acquire an example of the 1890 double eagle rarity.
