<B>1853/2 $20 AU55 PCGS.</B></I> The 1853/2 overdate is one of the premier rarities among Philadelphia Mint double eagles. It is an absolute as well as a condition rarity, with few accounted for in AU and currently only a handful of Mint State pieces certified. The downstroke of the 2 in the lower loop of the 3 is pronounced on this piece, and one only needs light magnification to see it. The surfaces are quite clean overall, with the only noticeable abrasions in the lower left obverse field and the lower reverse field above TWENTY. The well-struck surfaces are slightly hazy and orange-gold in color. Population: 16 in 55, 19 finer (3/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
