USA (San Francisco mint), $20 coronet Liberty "double eagle," 1857-S. 33.16 grams. The 1857-S double eagle was considered scarce until the SS Central America was found. Though this is not from that wreck, it is still a desirable, pre-Civil War double eagle. XF, minor marks and surface hairlines, bright from light cleaning, with good, mark-free rims.
