Lot 2632		1861-S $20 Liberty. NGC graded AU-50. Should be resubmitted for a lower grade! Just too much friction and too many light edge bumps for us to agree with "AU-50".

Lot 2638		1873-CC $20 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. Closed 3, as always for Carson City issues, as the dies were prepared early in the year and sent West. Here is a lovely example of the date, boldly struck, glistening with mint luster and free from serious edge bumps and noticeable imperfections.
