<B>1894 $20 MS64 NGC.</B></I> A frosty near-Gem with pinkish-gold color and sharp design details. A few tiny abrasions on each side keep this from the Gem grade level, which would nearly put it in a class of its own. Like so many others, this date is common in grades up to MS63, rare in MS64, and virtually non-existent any finer. The total mintage was just under 1.5 million pieces, only the seventh time since the start of the denomination that the Philadelphia Mint struck more than 1 million such coins. A large number of these coins were exported in the late 1890s, with a few survivors finally returning to the United States about 100 years later.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
