Liberty Double Eagles
1871 $20 AU55 PCGS. Double eagle production at Philadelphia -- typically substantial -- dipped below the six-figure mark in 1868 and then again in 1871, but was back into the seven-figure range in 1873. The 1871 double eagle is a better date in high grade, scarce in AU condition and a major rarity in Mint State. This Choice AU coin displays partial luster and pleasing yellow-gold surfaces. Bold design elements share a scattering of abrasions with the fields, as normal for this grade level. Population: 39 in 55, 39 finer (7/17).
