Liberty Double Eagles
1850 $20 AU53 NGC. The bright yellow-gold surfaces seen here are characteristic of the 1850 double eagle, which was struck largely with California gold that was shipped to Philadelphia before the San Francisco Mint was established. The coin is lightly worn and moderately abraded, following the general reputation of the issue. We observe hints of luster in the most protected regions of the fields that improve the aesthetics.
