1863-S $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle XF-40 PCGS
In 1863, the San Francisco Mint produced a run of 966,570 gold double eagles, each carrying a face value of twenty dollars. These impressive gold coins were struck from 0.900 fine gold, containing 0.9675 troy ounces of precious metal. The San Francisco origin is marked by the distinctive 'S' mint mark, denoting its manufacture on the Pacific coast during an era of immense western expansion and national transformation. This particular specimen has survived the decades in remarkable condition, certified by professional graders as Extremely Fine 40 (XF-40). The design features the classic Liberty head on the obverse, surrounded by stars and the 1863 date, while the reverse displays the proud heraldic eagle, the national name, and the denomination expressed as 'TWENTY D.'
