***Auction Highlight*** 1880-s Gold Liberty Double Eagle $20 Graded Select Unc By USCG. The 1880-S double eagle is one of the many Type Three S-mint issues in the Liberty Head series that show a sharp line of demarcation between the range of pieces available in circulated grades, with a much smaller number obtainable in the au58 to lower Mint State grades, MS60 to MS62 -- yet virtually nonexistent in MS63 and finer grades. The Select grade is achieved here due to the relative lack of heavy abrasions that these large, soft gold coins usually exhibit. Generous luster proceeds from well-struck apricot-gold surfaces. It is worth noting that only 6 coins have graded finer, 5 of which are ms64 and 1 lone ms65+. It is likely that those 5 ms64 are actually only 2 coins and resubmissions. Our example is most likely tied for 4th finest. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win Coin
