Lot 1790
1876-S $20 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62. A golden orange example with fewer marks than usually encountered. The obverse is fairly bold in striking detail with complete if note razor-formed stars, but unlike many CC Mint twenties of this Type 2 period, the reverse is decidedly sharp in every detail with noticeable detail on the shield, the eagle’s plumage and tail. Mint luster is pleasingly bright for the assigned grade, as it possesses a frosted sheen. A peppering of small-size abrasions, which usually characterize the issue, seems almost entirely absent here, a major bonus for the astute buyer! Any marks which are present simply are unworthy of singular concern (PCGS # 8978) .
Estimated Value $2,600 - 2,700.
