Liberty Double Eagles
1865-S $20 AU55 PCGS. Ex: Granite Lady Hoard. Small S. This green and rose-gold double eagle was salvaged from the Second San Francisco Mint rather than one of the shipwrecks that account for the relative high-grade availability of this formerly elusive issue. Strike detail on the obverse is typically soft, strengthening a touch on the reverse. Abrasions and light friction over the high points fail to distract from this partly lustrous Choice AU survivor.
