Description
# 1891-S $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle - CAC MS-62. This exceptional San Francisco Mint Liberty Gold Double Eagle represents a significant numismatic treasure from the late 19th-century American gold coinage era. Struck during a pivotal period of western mint production, the 1891-S $20 showcases remarkable preservation and historical significance. The coin exhibits sharp mint luster with minimal abrasions typical of its MS-62 grade. Surfaces display a warm, golden-honey patina characteristic of original San Francisco mint gold coinage, with subtle mint-state preservation evident across both obverse and reverse fields. CAC certification confirms the specimen's superior quality within its grade range, providing additional assurance of eye appeal and technical merit. Numismatically important, the 1891-S $20 represents a relatively moderate mintage year for San Francisco gold production. With limited surviving specimens in comparable condition, this example offers collectors an opportunity to acquire a well-preserved representative of classic Pre-1933 United States gold coinage. The piece demonstrates excellent strike quality and minimal contact marks, making it an attractive addition to advanced type or date-specific gold collections. *Graded and Certified*: - Certification: CAC MS-62. - Certificate Number: 12503829. - Mint: San Francisco (S). - Year: 1891. - Denomination: $20 Liberty Double Eagle. - Metal: 90% Gold
