Liberty Double Eagles
1857-S $20 AU55 NGC. This is the year that the famous S.S. Central America sank, and large quantities of 1857-S double eagles were recovered as part of the treasure from that shipwreck. However, the present Choice AU example has an entirely different look and likely predated the treasure recovery. This piece has light yellow surfaces with traces of luster and trivial surface marks.
