Lot Description

Mint State 1872 Double Eagle. 1872 Gold $20. MS-62 PCGS. CAC. This deeply lustrous honey-gold example is a strong representative of the date and grade combination. Lively unbroken luster graces the fields as well as the high design points. Scarce in MS-62 and downright rare any finer. A truly choice example of Type II double eagle coinage, a design type that lasted 11 calendar years and that can prove difficult to locate in true Mint State. PCGS Population: 10; 3 finer (all MS-63). PCGS #8963
