Liberty Double Eagles
1873 $20 Open 3 MS63 PCGS. CAC. The Open 3 in the date was the creation of Chief Coiner A. Louden Snowden, who believed the earlier Closed 3 numeral punch looked too much like an 8. This well-detailed Select specimen offers lustrous, lightly marked orange-gold surfaces with outstanding eye appeal. PCGS has graded 11 finer examples (3/17).
