Liberty Double Eagles
1897-S $20 MS64+ NGC. CAC. The frosty surfaces of this highly lustrous San Francisco twenty shows only minuscule marks and displays a needle-sharp strike -- factors that contribute to the NGC Plus designation and the accompanying CAC endorsement. If anything, near-Gem piece seems poised for an even finer grade, since the eye appeal is terrific and its technical merit is clearly evident. Census: 24 in 64+, 3 in 64★, 20 finer. CAC: 60 in 64, 2 finer (1/17).
