Liberty Double Eagles
1857-S $20 Spiked Shield, Variety 20A, MS64 PCGS. Ex: S.S. Central America, SSCA 4811. Frosty rose-gold luster delivers radiant cartwheel effects on this outstanding near-Gem Central America treasure coin. The usual orange-gold peripheral ring attractively frames the sharp devices. Grade-limiting abrasions are quite trivial. The Spiked Shield die pairing represents the majority of the shipwreck coins recovered.
