Liberty Double Eagles
1861-S $20 AU58 NGC. From a mintage of 768,000 pieces, the 1861-S Liberty double eagle is very scarce in AU58 condition, and Mint State coins are rare. This attractive near-Mint specimen shows just a trace of wear on the well-detailed design elements, and a die crack travels through the obverse stars on the right. Another network of cracks connects most of the letters in the reverse legends. The lustrous orange-gold surfaces are lightly abraded. NGC has graded 14 numerically finer examples (4/17).
