1858 S Coronet Head $20 Double Eagle - MS-61

The grading results for this 1858 S Coronet Head $20 Double Eagle were posted today and came back as MS-61. Thought it had a slight chance at 62 but am still very satisfied with the results. I currently only have a pic of the obverse.

Wow from what I have been reading these early twenties are very rare in mint state condition. Congratulations

Wish I had the money floating around to by MS type 1's. Nice! Is it NGC or PCGS?

Graded by NGC. I am fortunate enough to have this coin as part of my father's collection that he began over 70 years ago. We are going through it now determining exactly what we have. This is one of the "favorite" gold coins of the collection.

Would love to see you post pics of anything interesting! Are you selling the collection, or continuing it?

Nice double eagle!

Very nice grade. A 62 would have been pretty tough, since none have been graded yet. And only one 63. You got a top pop.
