Liberty Double Eagles
1877 $20 MS62+ PCGS. Uncirculated examples of the inaugural Type Three double eagle are apt to be found in MS61 or MS62. Plus-designated coins of similar quality are rare. The 1877 commands a considerable premium in MS63 and is virtually unknown in MS64. This warm, sun-gold twenty offers glistening frost and few major abrasions for the grade. Small, scattered marks are expected, and the impression is uniformly bold. PCGS shows 18 submissions graded finer (1/17).
