<B>1870 $20 MS62 PCGS.</B></I> Unlike the Type One double eagles, there were no hoards of Type Two dates, and these coins are the rarest of the denomination in Mint State grades. Nearly every date is a condition rarity, as is the type itself. Combining every date from 1866 to 1876, including all mintmark issues, PCGS has only certified 448 coins in grades finer than MS62.<BR> With a mintage of 155,150 coins, the 1870 is a lower mintage issue, 10th lowest of the 29 Type Two issues. This remarkable piece is frosty and lustrous with brilliant orange-gold surfaces and sharp design details. A few scattered marks and spots limit the grade, but it has the eye appeal of a much finer coin. Population: 18 in 62, 2 finer (3/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
