Twenty Cent Pieces
1875-S 20C MS64 NGC. BF-15R, R.3. A misplaced 5 appears in the denticles beneath the 7 in the date, and repunching shows as "notching" on the top-right serif of the S mintmark on the reverse, as identified in the new Brunner-Frost Doubled Dimes reference. There are also die cracks near stars 9 and 10, and a rim cud over star 10. Dusky gray patination affirms the originality of this near-Gem twenty cent piece. The design elements are well-struck and there are no significant marks to report.
