Description

Richly Lustrous 1903-S Twenty Dollar, MS64+

1903-S $20 MS64+ NGC. The mintage of less than 1 million coins for this double eagle issue may presage the huge numbers produced the following year in both San Francisco and Philadelphia, perhaps as compensation. At any rate, as with so many late-series S-mint Liberty Heads, the near-Gem to Gem level is as nice as usually seen. The present MS64+ coin is currently the sole example so certified at NGC, although there are 22 MS65s finer (8/10). Thick, rich mint luster beams from orange-gold, distraction-free surfaces that are well-struck throughout.(Registry values: N2998)
