***Auction Highlight*** 1874-s Gold Liberty Double Eagle $20 Graded Select Unc By USCG. Broad S Mintmark. The 1874-S Liberty double eagle features the popular Type Two design, with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST on the reverse. The 1874-S claims a large mintage of more than 1.2 million pieces, but the coins were released into circulation at the time of issue and few were saved for numismatic purposes. Unlike the earlier Type One issues, few Type Two double eagles have been recovered from recent shipwreck finds. As a result, most examples seen today are in circulated, or lower Mint State grades. The 1874-S is scarce in MS62 condition, and finer coins are condition rarities. This Plus-graded MS62 example combines attractive reddish-gold and lemon highlights over lightly marked, sun-gold surfaces. The design elements are sharply rendered, as expected for the issue. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
