Lot 1728
1859 $20 Liberty. AU-55. Removed from an NGC holder where it was graded AU 55. Full luster, but marred by countless small bagmarks in the delicate fields. Mintages dropped to 43,677 in 1859 as the Civil War dawned on the horizon. Coins like this scarcely circulated, but were hoarded for the hard times to come.
