Liberty Double Eagles
1868-S $20 AU58 PCGS. CAC. Despite the more-than-adequate mintage of 837,500 pieces, the 1868-S Liberty double eagle is rare in high grade. Like most Type Two twenties, the 1868-S was extensively circulated at the time of issue, was not recovered from shipwrecks in large quantities, and was not heavily saved by contemporary collectors. This lightly worn near-Mint specimen offers still-lustrous orange-gold surfaces that show the expected number of minor contact marks for the grade. Population: 87 in 58 (2 in 58+), 35 finer. CAC: 26 in 58, 10 finer (7/17)..
