<B>1857-S $20 Spiked Shield MS66 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 20A, identified by two short, deep die scratches to the left of and penetrating the shield. As a result of the discovery of the <I>S.S. Central America</B></I> treasure, the 1857-S has become the single most available Type One Liberty Head double eagle. <BR> This Premium Gem example displays remarkably clean, well preserved surfaces. It is exceptional in this regard, for as Douglas Winter and Adam Crum, in their <I>Insider's Guide to Collecting Type I Double Eagles</B></I>, write, "... most Type I double eagles show extremely heavy marks." <BR> In addition to excellent surface quality, this example possesses dazzling luster and attractive peach-gold color accented with whispers of apricot. Finally, an exacting strike imparts sharp definition to the design features. All of these attributes combine to generate super eye appeal.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
