Attractive MS64 1896-S Twenty

1896-S $20 MS64 PCGS. A shining near-Gem example that would fit well in a high-end 19th century gold type collection. The strike is bold, as is the yellow-gold luster. Housed in a green label holder. The 1896-S is available for a price in MS64, but anything finer is extremely rare, with just two such pieces known to PCGS (6/09).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26CG, PCGS# 9030, Greysheet# 9957)

Weight: 33.44 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
