<B>1867 $20 MS60 NGC.</B></I> The Garrett-Guth <I>Gold Encyclopedia</B></I> reports concerning this date, "A significant number of 1867 Philadelphia double eagles were shipped overseas for trade at the time of issue. Reportedly, a hoard of a few hundred or so coins was repatriated sometime during the 1960s. Author Jeff Garrett was offered groups of the date as late as the 1980s. Most of the coins were Mint State but heavily abraded." The present piece could well be one of those hoard coins, as although the mint luster is intense, the obverse in particular shows extensive abrasions, the reverse much less so. There is no trace of rub, and the orange-gold coloration is a plus, although a bit of dark patina appears on the reverse. Population: 22 in 60, 84 finer (1/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
