1866-S $20 No Motto AU50 NGC. The last of the Type One
<B>1866-S $20 No Motto AU50 NGC.</B></I> The last of the Type One double eagle issues, the 1866-S No Motto was struck early in the year prior to the arrival from Philadelphia of the new reverse dies featuring IN GOD WE TRUST within the cluster of stars above the eagle. The exact mintage of this formidable scarcity is unknown, with estimates ranging from 12,000 pieces (the current <I>Guide Book</B></I> estimate) to an unrealistically high figure of 120,000 coins. Representatives in AU and finer grades are among the elite survivors. This example, while liberally abraded, retains a generous amount of luster and pleasing reddish accents. Census: 18 in 50, 36 finer (11/06).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
