Liberty Double Eagles
1853-O $20 -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. AU. Variety 1. With 400 to 500 examples known (mostly in VF to XF condition), Doug Winter explains that "the 1853-O is much scarcer than the 1850-O, 1851-O, and 1852-O." This AU representative features an above-average strike with strong stars and curls. Moderate hairlines over yellow-gold surfaces are a tell-tale sign of improper cleaning, though most collectors would be delighted to include this No Motto O-mint twenty in their sets.
