Description

1875-S 20C MS63 PCGS. Since the ill-conceived twenty cent piece was started to appease Western silver miners' growing power and influence, it is fitting that the largest emission by far of the series should have been in San Francisco, not far from where most of the silver was likely mined, in Nevada's legendary Comstock Lode. This is a splendid Select example with ice-blue and rose alternating on the lustrous surfaces. A couple of scrapes and a blunt strike on Liberty's head account for the grade, but few abrasions appear elsewhere.(Registry values: N1793)
