Liberty Double Eagles
1863-S $20 AU55 PCGS. From a substantial mintage of 966,570 pieces, the 1863-S Type One double eagle was often used in foreign trade and the issue is quite elusive in high grade, despite some nice examples recovered from recent shipwreck finds. This attractive Choice AU specimen offers lightly worn, moderately abraded orange-gold surfaces that retain significant amounts of original mint luster.
