THE SHIP OF GOLD COLLECTION<br />

LOT 285<br />

$20 1857-S PCGS MS67 CAC EX S.S. CENTRAL<br />

AMERICA<br />

Legend Rare Coin <strong>Auction</strong>s is proud to offer this<br />

magnificent and extremely historical SUPERB GEM<br />

Type 1 $20. We shake our heads in bewilderment that this<br />

coin actually sat on the ocean floor for so many years and<br />

survived in an unheard of condition like this defies logic!<br />

We consider this coin to be a legit MS67.9+! We can<br />

not imagine a finer Type 1 Double Eagle could ever<br />

exist (none do).Clearly this is one of the FINEST Type 1<br />

Double Eagles that exists!<br />

Unbelievable surfaces are exactly that. Even using a<br />

strong glass and skimming the satiny surfaces for a few<br />

minutes will yield you NO imperfections-not even tiny<br />

ones. A full glowing luster beams boldly from all over.<br />

Both sides have a crisp and deeper orange gold on the<br />

rims that opens into lighter yellow gold centers. There are<br />

NO spots or discolorations. Miss Liberty and every detail<br />

are frosty and are fully struck. The eye appeal is jaw<br />

dropping and then some!<br />

For this group from the wreck, the PCGS pop is 3 with<br />

just the + as higher. The pre 2014 dive pop is PCGS 8,<br />

NGC 0. CAC has beaned a total of only 3 coins. Our<br />

sister firm, Legend Numismatics, has sold one MS67<br />

from the original batch and one from this new batch.<br />

There is this coin, another and the MS67+ (for crazy<br />

money) that are the only MS67’s available. ALL coins<br />

are now graded and are accounted for. Prior to this wreck<br />

being discovered, there was no such thing as even an<br />

MS64! Clearly this is a once in a life time opportunity.<br />

PCGS# 670713 | ESTIMATE: $165,000+<br />
