1901 Liberty Twenty, MS65
Finer Pieces Are Rare

1901 $20 MS65 PCGS. Despite a modest mintage of 111,430 pieces in 1901, the issue has become widely popular as a type coin based upon plentiful supplies through MS65. A large hoard in the 1990s surfaced and increased high-end totals, but Premium Gems remain quite challenging. This well-preserved double eagle is sharply struck on honey-gold surfaces with luminous undertones of lilac and light-orange. Eye appeal is strong with rich, frosty luster delivering a colorful cartwheel effect. Faint luster grazes on Liberty's cheek and a few minor marks account for the grade. PCGS reports only four numerically finer examples, along with 12 pieces in MS65+ (6/25).(Registry values: N2998)
