Liberty Double Eagles
1853 $20 MS61 PCGS. Breen-7160. The 3 in the date is repunched, but this is different from the well-known 1853/"2" FS-301 variety. The 1853 is rare in Mint State, despite a mintage of 1.2 million coins and the recovery of nine Uncirculated survivors from the S.S. Central America. This MS61 No Motto twenty is brightly lustrous and boldly struck with pleasing rose and yellow-gold surfaces. Expectedly abraded. Population: 17 in 61, 27 finer (4/17).
