1859-S $20 Liberty. NGC graded AU-53. Clean surfaces for the grade and very well preserved, considering that this coin was serving its purposes in a rather wild area of the West. The Gold Rush had just passed its peak, and affluent merchants and miners were everywhere. This coin possesses some darker highlights on its devices, as seen on original coins, and would make a welcome addition to a high grade date set. Some luster clings to the fields near the devices, and the surfaces are much cleaner than usually encountered on these large, heavy gold pieces.
Estimated Value $1,300 - 1,600.

 
Realized $1,380
