<B>1853/2 $20 AU55 PCGS.</B></I> Opinions divide on whether this controversial issue is a true overdate or not. Garrett and Guth comment, "The variety that is collected as the 'overdate' shows the remnants of a numeral beneath the 3 of the date, which is most pronounced near the bottom. Lee Minshull reports that the true 1853, 3/2 variety can be positively identified by a small die bulge beneath the R of LIBERTY." On the other hand, Q. David Bowers' <I>Guide Book</B></I> of double eagles is much more dubious, even though contributors to the book showed divided opinions among themselves. Regardless, this piece shows the die bulge that Minshull points out beneath the R of LIBERTY, and what certainly could be traces of a 2 within the lower loop of the 3. The surfaces are richly toned orange-gold, with good luster and eye appeal. Population: 11 in 55, 18 finer (1/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
