<B>1888-S $20 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> The 1888-S double eagle can be easily located in grades ranging from About Uncirculated to Mint State 62. It becomes scarce in MS63 and rare in MS64 (Michael Fuljenz and Douglas Winter, <I>Type Three Double Eagles, 1877-1907</B></I>). Gems are virtually unknown. Indeed, PCGS and NGC have not, to date, seen any MS65 and finer coins.<BR> Rich apricot-gold color dominates the obverse of the near-Gem presented in this lot. On the reverse, apricot-gold borders transition to yellow-gold hues in the center area. Glowing luster embraces both sides, and an attentive strike imparts excellent definition to all of the design elements. The reverse is impeccably preserved, while a few inoffensive obverse handling marks prevent the attainment of full Gem status. Population: 41 in 64, 0 finer (6/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
