Description

1897-S Liberty Double Eagle, MS64+
Vivid Color, Vibrant Luster

1897-S $20 MS64+ PCGS. CAC. The 1897-S Liberty double eagle claims a mintage of nearly 1.5 million pieces, making it an available date in most grades. The population thins out dramatically at the Gem level, however, making this high-end Choice specimen a good balance of quality and value. The design elements are sharply detailed and the well-preserved peach-gold surfaces radiate vibrant mint luster. PCGS has graded 10 numerically finer examples (7/13).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26CJ, PCGS# 9032, Greysheet# 9958)

Weight: 33.44 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
