<B>1859 $20 AU50 ICG.</B></I> Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth (2006) state that the 1859 double eagle, with a business strike mintage of 43,597 pieces, is scarce in any grade, primarily because circulation strikes were largely ignored by early collectors who preferred proof examples of Philadelphia coinage. Most known examples are in the VF to XF grade range. Rich apricot-gold color with light green tinges adorns the lightly abraded surfaces of this AU50 example. Traces of luster cling to the design features, most of which are sharply defined.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
