Liberty Double Eagles
1860-S $20 MS61 PCGS. The typical surviving 1860-S double eagle grades AU50, based on the combined average grade of all PCGS and NGC certified examples. Slightly more than a half-million of these coins were minted, but the survival rate is quite low with only about 1,300 certified examples in all grades, and only 58 graded MS60 or finer. Only two coins grade higher than MS62, one certified as MS63 and the other MS64. This lovely example features brilliant and frosty light yellow luster, a strong strike, and minimal grade-limiting marks. Population: 14 in 61, 12 finer (11/16).
