Description
1890-S $20 MS62 ★ NGC. This coin is interesting, as it is the only 1890-S double eagle with a " ★ " designation, by NGC (6/09). That coveted designation is indicative of superior eye appeal, which the current specimen certainly possesses in abundance. It is well struck with a bright, semiprooflike appearance, and scattered marks that limit the numerical portion of its NGC grade assessment but, obviously, not its high degree of visual allure.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26BZ, PCGS# 9015, GSID# 9948)
