1894 Liberty Twenty, MS65
Significantly Rare at This Grade
Virtually Unavailable Any Finer

1894 $20 MS65 PCGS. With a mintage approaching 1.4 million pieces and a certified population of about 25,000 examples, the 1894 double eagle has common-date status through the MS63 level, before its numismatic value quickly becomes noticeable at every increment any finer. Near-Gem examples are scarce and fully Gem MS65 coins are extremely rare. Today, PCGS and NGC combined have seen only 19 examples so-graded and only one numerically finer piece exists (an MS67 NGC coin). Richly frosted orange-gold color yields reddish accents while a pinpoint-sharp strike confirms the substantial surface quality. Only a few incidental luster grazes are seen on the thickly frosted, highly lustrous surfaces. The eye appeal is excellent. PCGS Population: 11 in 65 (1 in 65+), 0 finer (3/26).(Registry values: N4719)
