1875 Twenty Cent, MS65
Brilliant Eye Appeal

1875 20C MS65 NGC. BF-1, R.1. The BF-1 is the most common of the three varieties, showing the far right date. This gorgeous Gem has fully brilliant silver surfaces with no toning on either side. The surfaces are lustrous and pleasing, with only a couple of tiny nicks in the left obverse field limiting the grade. Most twenty cent pieces from this inaugural year were struck in San Francisco, while the Philadelphia Mint only coined 38,500 business strikes. NGC shows only 12 finer examples (12/25).
