Liberty Double Eagles
1862-S $20 AU55 NGC. Well defined overall, the surfaces are mostly orange-gold in appearance. Some rich, copper-tinged iridescence is also evident on the reverse, as are freckled charcoal accents along the bottom rim. The number of small and moderate abrasions is typical of a circulated S-mint gold coin of this size. The 1862-S double eagle is scarce in high grade.
