Guanajuato, Mexico, gold 20 pesos, 1872 S, NGC MS 66, finest known in NGC census. KM-414.4. Out of currently 615 Mexican gold 20 pesos coins of any date and mint in the NGC census (struck 1866-1905, including the Maximilian issues of 1866), only two are MS 66 and one is MS 66+, none finer, which places this finest-for-the-date piece (mintage 18,000) within the top 0.5% of all NGC-graded examples, a staggering honor for such a classic and popular type! This status is well deserved, as this coin's strike is flawless and its fields are almost all satin-smooth, with brilliant cartwheel luster, all in a lovely, rich gold color. A quick scan shows that no other 20 pesos of this type above MS 64 grade has sold publicly since 2018. For the Mexican numismatic connoisseur who can afford the best!

Estimate: $20000 - $40000
