Liberty Double Eagles
1857-S $20 Spiked Shield, Variety 20A, MS64 PCGS. This Choice Uncirculated 1857-S double eagle certainly derives from the S.S. Central America shipwreck recovery, although no mention of its origin is made on the PCGS insert. The Spike Shield variety was the most prevalent among coins from that hoard. Exceptionally clean surfaces feature lively mint frost that combines with mixed shades of peach and sun-gold color. Wonderful eye appeal for this No Motto type coin.
