Liberty Double Eagles
1896-S $20 MS63 PCGS. CAC. The 1896-S double eagle is plentiful in MS63, but only a few dozen examples are CAC-approved at this level. Finer coins are challenging overall. This piece offers sharp detail and frosty yellow-gold surfaces. Light grazes on Liberty's cheek determine the grade, while some minor planchet roughness appears beneath a loupe near the lower reverse rim. CAC: 39 in 63, 10 finer (11/16).
