1857-S $20 AU58 NGC.
1857-S $20 AU58 NGC.<p>More than 5,000 1857-S Double Eagles were found on the S.S. Central America. This NGC AU58 is a nice, affordable example originally purchased prior to the discovery of these coins and, at the time, it represented the best quality that was readily available for the issue. The original mint luster on this piece is only slightly disturbed by the slight handling it received in the channels of commerce in California in the late 1850s. There are virtually no abrasions present, certainly none worthy of mention, with the only surface flaws being a series of grease stains (as struck) through the coronet and the upper portions of Liberty's hair. Sharply defined throughout. Important notice: We expect to be auctioning lots at the rate of 200-250 per hour. Sometimes eBay Premier live bid software cannot keep up with that pace, so we strongly recommend that you place a realistic proxy bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Also please note that all Heritage/CAA lots purchased through eBay Premier carry a 20% Buyer's Premium.
