Liberty Double Eagles
1896 $20 MS64 PCGS. Nearly the entire population of 1896 double eagles at the leading certification services falls within the grade range of MS61 to MS63. Comparable near-Gems are very scarce, and only a handful of MS65 representatives are known. This smooth, softly frosted double eagle with peach-gold color certainly appears finer than the grade suggests. The obverse fields are remarkably unabraded. Razor-sharp strike. PCGS reports seven finer submissions (9/17).
