Description

1896-S Double Eagle, MS63
Challenging in Finer Grades

1896-S $20 MS63 PCGS. Mint State examples of this San Francisco issue are plentiful through MS63, but higher-grade coins become increasingly elusive. This collectible representative displays softly frosted peach-gold luster and well-defined devices. A few light marks are seen on Liberty's cheek and in the field, but eye appeal exceeds expectations for the grade.(Registry values: N1793)
