$20 1897 PCGS MS65

This coin was clearly sent from heaven!  If you have seen other MS65 pieces from the 1890’s we know you will agree. The quality is also HIGH END. To start, the surfaces are extraordinarily clean and have a satiny texture. There is  slight frost break/scuff on the cheek by the lips. We think that is all that would keep this older holder coin from grading MS65+ or even MS66. S strong satiny type luster beams from all over. Both sides are a gorgeous and totally original orange gold/deep yellow gold color. There is one tiny toning dot hidden in the letters on the reverse-which helps more then prove how original this coin is. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and are fully struck. The eye appeal is totally heart pounding! PCGS 7, NGC 14, CAC 2. There is only a MS65+ higher. This was the last coin to sell in auction nearly 5 long years ago. Back then it brought $24,675.00 11/2012. We do not know where this coin has been since, but a Legend quality coin like this is one we always welcome back. If you seek an exceptional and colorful $20 Liberty in GEM that is a much better date, then this coin is for you!
